Was thinking something similar.
The coppers seem a bit heavy handed but it looks plain the guy was singled out for some reason which is unclear, it's hardly Kristallnacht.
Pre-emtive arrests are always subject to the same critisism, but when they don't happen the same people cry "why was nothing done to stop this?". Coppers can't win.
