Ummm... the red serge is a cerimonial/dress uniform... regular duty they wear something similar to police uniforms across North America... and in this case they where in there duty/patrol uniforms - with soft tactical vests, their sidearms and pepper spray. The man they were investigating however had a high powered military assault rifle...
It's just to bad the guy turned the rifle on himself - denied the police and families some closure by seeing him rotting away in a prison cell for life.
