Also, any time you draw your gun, YOU should call 911. Reason for that is: someone is probably going to call the police. The police usually start with looking at the person who called as the good guy and the other guy as the bad guy. Don't be the bad guy.
Very true! Unless you work in LE, you couldn't believe how often this happens, and how often the complainant ends up being the bad guy. They do it to cover their own backsides. It's an old, if not very good, street trick, but if we can't get your side of the story, you could very well end up looking like the BG.

This happens a lot with vehicles too. A car is involved in a robbery, or a hit and run, and the owner/driver realizes he's been made, he'll often try to file a stolen vehicle report shortly thereafter.

Always report any incident in which you were forced to pull a weapon!
