Yes, "IF" that is what happened. But what is more likely to have happened: they were asked to leave because they didn't order anything and refused or that an employee just decided to go ahead and call the cops on them without warning?

In my experience (and by that, I mean all those episodes of Law & Order I've watched), police have up to 24 hours before they have to let them go or file charges.
