The man on the ground is obviously not armed and who are they a threat to laying on the ground? Is standing over the man straddling him the best tactic?
Subdue and detain. Best tactic or not, what the off duty officer was doing in his role as hotel security, after witnessing the subject assault the cab driver, was the right thing to do. His decision to go hands on and detain was the right move to make.

Standing over or near him also a mistake especially when alone.
johnelmore, do you have any experience doing security work? I'm wondering if your opinions are based on life experience or just assumptions.
