The scenario I am about to describe happened a few days ago. It involved my younger brother, his friend, a woman with a bad hair day, and an officer.
My younger brother and his friend were riding their bikes at a nearby church. Apparantly, they were riding on the grass lawn of this church and a disgruntled woman (who worked there) did not like that. She told them to stop riding on the lawn. My brother and his friend responded disrespectfully. She took offense and later thought they rode accross the grass a second time after she had warned them (it was actually my brothers friend who rode accross the second time). So, the woman called an officer to the church. The officer questioned my brother and tried to coerce a confession from him about riding across this lawn the second time(after he had been told not to). My brother gave in eventually because he could see that circumstances were going nowhere. The officer then asked the disgruntled woman if she wanted him to "run them in."
Alright, all that for this:
Any opinions or insights from LEOs would be helpful.

Alright, all that for this:
- What is "running them in" and would it have been appropriate considering the circumstances?
- What do you think of my brother being coerced by the officer?
- My brother was coerced because his friend admitted to riding on the lawn after the incident.
