As the officer walked out of the car, Canary yelled "what the f*** do you want?" The officers told Canary to calm down, because it was the middle of the night, but Canary wouldn't listen, police said, and allegedly kept on screaming obscenities at the officers.

“Canary stood 6’03 looming over me," one of the officers wrote in the police report, "as he pointed and yelled at me."
