Edina police released this statement on the city’s website:“Recognizing the risk to the safety of the public, the officer pulled in behind theman with his lights and an audible signal in an attempt to advise him to get out of the roadway. The man, who was wearing headphones, turned and looked at the officer and continued walking in the lane of traffic,” said the statement.“The officer smelled alcohol on the man’s breath during the incident. A breathalyzer later confirmed the presence of alcohol,” the statement said.Acknowledging that it’s within a bystander’s right to film officer interactions, the police statement cautioned that citizens should not interact with an officer or suspect.“Public safety is our first priority. It makes it more difficult for officers to deal with the situation on hand when they are at the same time dealing with the distractions of bystanders.”
