I don't see the reason why they had to be locked up. This was not a drug bust where they could have destroyed evidence. They were feeding the birds.
Unless there is more to the case than was reported (say it ain't so Joe!) I would agree that the police went too far.
I would be interested in hearing the police side and their justification for their actions.
