Ross spoke with the musician and explained the police had been called because the music was too loud.
"Little did anyone know that Officer Ross used to play the drums back in the day. Someone happened to capture Ross sitting down, showing them how it was done," the department wrote on Facebook, alongside a video of Ross jamming out on the drum kit.

I could have gone over there, talking down to them, telling them it was too loud and they needed to turn it down...but this was a lot more fun...it gave me a chance to interact with the people I serve. I got some hugs and handshakes at the end of it all, then they turned it down and left," Ross said, according to the department's Facebook post.
