The investigation follows allegations that the officer participated, while off-duty, in a counter-protest against groups opposing the sale of the Tower Theatre on Sunday. At times, the competing demonstrations led to heated words between various groups. While there was plenty of shouting and at least one instance of a foot being run over by a scooter, there was no other physical altercations. Police on hand were able to maintain order.
