Like Gene said he's "singin' and dancin' in the rain". As far as I can tell he's not disturbing the peace.

I wish there were more cops on the streets of major cities today who can put a halt to people acting like lunatics.
Maybe there would be less street violence.
Not sure what your objection is. The cop doesn't arrest Don Lockwood; he doesn't even reprimand him. He simply looks at him.
And since Don is in the street at that moment, and streets often have cars driving down them, it's perfectly understandable that a policeman would take notice of his activity. But that's all he does; he takes notice of it. I think it's a nice way of bringing a musical sequence back to reality - and Kelly plays the moment beautifully.
He could not grasp Gene Kelly's true form.

The cop thought he was looking at a drunk-and-disorderly. No breathalyzers in those days, so glaring was his warning to Don. "Start acting sober, whether you are or not, and I won't have to haul you in."
shareHe saw him climb up the lamp post, which was city property and might have been damaged.
