Never really the wisest idea to go pointing gun shaped things at U.S. cops now, is it?

The unidentified female officer, who has been placed on administrative leave, reportedly broke down at the scene after learning what had befallen Roupe.

The incident is under going review by the George Bureau of Investigation

She's on administrative leave. So I guess they have reason to believe he was just holding a Wii remote?
