Corrected entry: When Riggs and Murtaugh arrive at Dixie's house, the boys playing on the street immediately identify them as police officers. The clothes Riggs and Murtaugh are wearing and the car their driving, give no indication that they are police officers. So how could the boys know this? (01:02:30)

Correction: Several possible explanations. Perhaps the boys have seen Riggs and Murtaugh specifically before, for instance. It's also possible these young children, having lived in what is obviously not exactly the best sort of neighborhood, are very street wise and can recognize the pair as police by their behavior or some other indicator.
