I'm curious about the 17-19 police officer figure. Do police departments actually operate on a "dispatch X officers to deal with incident of nature X" or is it a function of "All officers in the vicinity of X location, we have a XXX in progress at the address X". If the latter is the case, this would suggest that the police presence that showed up is a function of the police presence in the vicinity an affluent neighborhood. Not passing judgement. Just asking a question. Another consideration about why force was used is that when officers arrived on the scene, the "suspect" was still in the residence. Typically, burglaries are in-and-out operations and I would expect a real burglar to be cognizant of the arrival of police officers and they would try to escape. Another thing to consider is the way the "suspect" reacted, since it should have appeared as a potential false positive to the police officers that arrived on the scene, since real burglars would probably react quite differently.
