Without getting into the details of the rest of the confrontation, you were very wise to call 911 right away. There's a reason that the cops made a point of telling you that your call to 911 came in first. Whether it's right or wrong, it is my understanding that the first person to call 911 in an altercation usually gets the benefit of the doubt when the police arrive on the scene.
