At the very least-and even though he bears the burden of showing Officers Johnson and Valenti are not entitled to the defense of qualified immunity-Larry Anthany has not pointed us to a case that clearly establishes his right to be free from forcible, temporary detainment when he confronted police officers responding to a volatile situation with a baseball bat and then told the officers that he wanted to be released so he could go fight his sister&#8217;s boyfriend. We know of no case clearly informing the officers that their actions violated the Fourth Amendment. [\u00b6] Quite the opposite. Our case law provides that officers may detain a person to ensure officer safety or the safety of others, so long as the infringement on the person&#8217;s liberty is proportionate to the safety concern.\u201d Cave v.
