With the dramatic increase in people impersonating a police officer it is understandable the hesitation many have about being confronted by the police, especially when you don't see a marked unit.
there are two things every police officer will have in his possession. 1- his department identification card 2- his TELCOSE card.
If you are not sure, ask for both. Yes it might irritate him, but most officers will understand.

Re: Off duty request for ID
A LEO working an extra job is still a LEO. In the instance the OP stated that the manager of a store reported a disturbance, and stated the OP was the one creating a disturbance.
The LEO has every right to ID the possible suspect to investigate the alleged complaint. In this case in doing so, the LEO quickly determined the OP had not committed any crime or disturbance and ceased his investigation and permitted the OP to go about his business.
It sounds to me like the LEO. Did his job and did it well.
