I’ve heard stories of two police departments confusing each other and literally get in a fighting match, so it might not be that far fetched

(Undercover drug buyers meeting undercover drug sellers … hilarity ensues)

There are numerous reports of police shooting each other thinking that the other are criminals.

Yeah, but that's not the result the OP post expects, but instead "oh, you're on duty now? Well, sure, OK I guess."

What you're suggesting of the opposite. Legit other agency LEOs show up for a double-tap arrest and the first group start shooting at them because they don't expect them.
