I found this especially funny since I live fairly close to Janesville.

Apparently the storm trooper fired some 600 shots. All of them missed of course.

But on a serious note, why is he being detained just because they showed up? He didn't do anything.

It was probably some Trekkie. He was pissed that this guy's costume was better than the cardboard Borg suit he made in his parents' basement.

isn't the Storm Trooper lacking in height?

He looks a little child size to me.

I think that it may be that the officer is standing on the sidewalk, while the 'trooper is standing in the street, it looks like that may be a high curb (6"+?). He may still be on the short side, but not as short as the pic may look.
