How about…72 hour involuntary hold for psyche evaluation because subject seemed nervous and jittery and may have undiagnosed paranoid schizophrenia, bi-polar disorder or other chemical imbalance. This is of course a precaution for the benefit of the subject.
That cut it? I mean a deep dive could occur by the time they are deemed psychologically clear.

It's a shame they don't do the before hiring LEO's.
Police officer who gave feces sandwich to homeless man fired again.
Estimates indicate that two-thirds of fired San Antonio cops have been allowed to return to their jobs because of arbitration clauses in old union contracts.
Because of the public outcry, the San Antonio city council ultimately revised its police contract to reduce the arbitrators' power to return fired cops.
This is a common problem among police departments in other states in the US: The one in Washington, D.C. for example, allowed at least 37 fired officers over six years to return to their job, costing the city more than $14 million in back pay.
Almost half of the cops had been fired for behavior deemed a "threat to safety."

So one guy gets through the cracks and all police officers should not be allowed a review by independent arbitration after being fired?
