You're right, they don't like that. I guess they have to see everyone as a shooter. Yet they go around blipping their lights and siren to get your attention. I have to believe cop cars have horns for that purpose.
I asked my wife what she would have done in the circumstances. She said make the turn. Her opinion is that once the cop hit the siren or lights, he/she was informing all around that they needed to yield the right-of-way, including the pedestrian. So, once a code run has been invoked, the pedestrian gets a ticket too for not yielding to an emergency vehicle.
