A father claims that the security guards at the Knott's Soak City water park roughed him up in front of his kids over a false claim that his kid had stolen another kid's sandals. The merits of the case are beside the point for a talk topic; the topic is how rent-a-cops sometimes go way, way overboard, whether their victims are criminals or not. We'd like to think they're somewhere between a lovable Paul Blart and an effective security agent, but often they're just guys who couldn't ever cut it as a real cop but think they're real cops nonetheless. Everyone's encountered security guards who acted like a-holes. (KCBS-TV/Los Angeles)
