Anyone know why coppers examined our hands?

My brother and I were randomly stopped by cops walking down the street in the middle of the night.
During their usual unwarranted search of my bag and pat-down they asked they took out a flashlight and asked to look at our hands.
The only reason I could come up with is either
a) drugs hidden under fingernails
b) looking for spray-paint from graffiti
Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen or if someone knows why?

Spray paint on hands Cuts/Blackened fingernails from meth (lots of people cut their hands on broken meth pipes etc..) He could have wanted to see if you had resin smudges on your fingers from scraping a pipe or something. Or maybe he just wanted you to open your hands in case you had a bag of drugs in your closed hand. Finally he could have just been creepy and wanted to fondle your hands

From the way they looked(close inspection - not just like an "open your hands" type of deal), these are probably the most likely reasons.

He wanted to see if you had been in a fight.

doubt it had to do with drugs. even if you had some resin or charred hands or whatever there's not much he could do about it. he probably stopped you for a reason as in recent call of vandalism, assault, break in or something that may leave evidence on the hands.

Maybe those coppers have a hand fetish!
