Well, the “officer” was actually an off-duty Memphis security guard who was still in uniform when he decided to serve up his own brand of bare knuckle street justice. Pay attention kids: this is how REAL men settle their differences — with their fists instead of guns and knives.

The street thug, Morgan Andrew, said the security officer approached him and accused him of harassing a woman.

The two men exchanged words and then came to blows before Memphis police arrived on the scene and broke up the fight. Mr. Andrew was briefly detained by police while the unidentified security guard beat a hasty retreat from the scene.

The security guard’s supervisor confirmed he was off-duty at the time of the fisticuffs. But his behavior was certainly unbecoming of an officer in full uniform.
