Police regularly use extra force and SWAT teams to take down suspects if they believe them to be armed. I don't think it's unreasonable a cop would want, and should have, a partner or more with them if they're trying to arrest a violent criminal who is larger and (probably) stronger.

It isn't the police's job to cater to the criminals. It is there job to stop them.
