It's already been said, but again: DON'T TALK TO COPS.
THIS is why you don't talk to cops. Remember all those people that said "what if you're not the person they're looking for? What if you see an accident?"
This is what happened. Do you understand yet? If you have to talk to cops, despite everything you've now read or heard, then talk to them as little as possible. Follow their orders and get the hell away. The cop told him to leave. He should have left. His civic duty was done at that point.
