Have you seen this? Cyclist Rushes Past Police To Empty Bomb Scare's 'Suspicious Package', Gets Tackled Afterward

Story here.

The weird thing?  I get the guys frustration.  Any package left anywhere will be labeled as a possible bomb. 

I hope the LEO's in the audience can explain this but there were only two possible outcomes.  Either the guy would be blown up or it would be as it was...a false alarm.  Why the aggressive response?  Seems like he did the city a favor...or did he?
