Please, give me a break...I've seem more fat, overweight, out of shape Nassau County Cops over the last yr..I highly doubt they have what it takes to "run down" a criminal when necessary..doesn't take a lot to pull a trigger..anyone can become a cop, not everyone can mold the mind of a future cop..
