Estrada got involved in a dispute with 53 year old RANDALL SIMS - who had been stabbed in the leg during a domestic dispute - after Sims continued mistake Estrada for Hollywood actor EMILIO ESTEVEZ. The pair then traded insults at each other. Police Chief Winkle confirmed he'd discussed the confrontation with Estrada, saying, "We talked about it with him, the fact that that's something we encounter all the time, that you have to get a little thicker skin. "With any new officer we would tell them, 'Hey, that's not how we conduct ourselves, don't get caught up in the moment, we're the ones who are professionals.' That's what we did with Erik and I think he truly understood that."
