The kid didn't hear what the cop was sayin, and so the cop got pissed thinking the kid is pretending to act all innocent-like when he really is innocent.
I've dealt with cops quite a bit in my time and the cop was definitely out of line, but, in actuality most cops are out of line.
The whole tactic of being a cop is fear. They are there to keep order, and those that are out of line will be scared back in line to make sure it doesn't happen again. The cop pulled this tactic on this kid to prove a point and to teach him a lesson. Yes it's overreacting, and yes the cop was out of line. But if he wasn't would the kid have listened?
