“The retired officer who yelled “gun” has a habit of listening to a scanner and going to the scene.”
I didn’t see that in the article.
This part was in Newsday,the local liberal rag.
"... Neighbors, including Theresa Kelly who called 911, said she remembers the man who shouted “he’s got a gun” when Breitkopf and other special operations officers arrived at the scene. Kelly said the man was “shouting things, running around, ordering people around.”
