Can anyone yet explain why the guy was carrying a metal while working on his car on his own driveway?
Since such a thing is obviously bizzare and threatening - the police's reaction has to be judged in relation to this strangeness.
So yes, it does matter.
Its legal to walk around wearing all black and a balaclava and a sports bag at 3 am round a residential street... but if you did youre behaviour would be judged as suspicious and youd expect to be stopped and searched.
The same thing goes to any guy who is armed in his own front yard. The police are gonna obviously think "why has this guy got a metal on him?" and arrest him, because its incredibly suspicious and threatening behaviour.
