In many US jurisdictions, police will show up if they get called with a complaint. They'll harrass the person the complaint was about, and if they don't like how the person responds, they'll escalate the situation. The number of people charged for nothing except "resisting arrest" (regardless that the arrest was unreasonable) is astounding.
And there's no "right" way to act in those situations. Charles Kinsey got shot, lying on the ground with his empty hands on the air, because the police were afraid when they responded to a complaint. The shooter kept his job, retired, and got 100 hours of community service and had to write a letter of apology.
