I would have stopped you too. You weren't arrested. You were detained and they got your info just in case there was an actual break-in. He was just doing his job. He didn't do anything wrong.
I was out for a nightly run in my neighborhood and got stopped by the police because someone a couple of blocks away had just had their car broken into. I wasn't a bit offended that they stopped me (and chewed my ass for not having my ID with me). In fact, I was glad to see that they were actually making an effort to catch a criminal.

Get a grip man -- there was no alarm. The cop just happened to see us walking and decided to use the alarm story...
