Dallas officer in off duty confrontation

I don't agree with the charges being filed against this officer, assuming his story is correct. To the LEO's on the board, was the officer following procedure by drawing on the suspect after he repeatedly ignored commands?

Jones, 42, was expected to turn himself in at the Dallas County jail. He told police investigators that he ordered a man who was urinating on a wall at an apartment complex on Washington Avenue in Old East Dallas to stop. He said that when the man didn’t follow his commands, and after he identified himself as a police officer, he drew his weapon and ordered Brandon Schroder, 23, to his knees.

The decision by prosecutors to pursue criminal charges against Jones immediately riled officers throughout the Dallas Police Department, with many saying Jones was being punished for simply doing his job.
