Abstract
Since publication, the Authors discovered two errors in the article. Specifically, (1) the sample size was mistakenly under-reported. Instead of 5283, the authors reported 5268. (2) The effect for one of the variables was erroneously reported. The direction of the effect for one variable was reported as a positive effect, when it was a negative effect. This led to the suggestion that verbal assault on officers increases chances of receiving an outcome instead of reducing such likelihood. The errors directly impact the validity of the reported results and conclusions.
