Based on what you've written, the police officer had bigger problems to deal with other than you yelling for a fight to stop. You did not commit a crime and should not be fined or plead guilty to anything in my opinion.

You can fight this matter in court and I would recommend you do so.

Please call my office if you would like to discuss your matter in greater detail.

Good luck
