Officer Gerou, is a former Marine MP, who happens to be my "baby" brother....so I thought I would share. He did good. I know that little girl was glad he decided to follow that vehicle.

Busted!

Nothin' like a stupid crook is there!


My take:
With thoughts of a cold beer and visions of watchin the tube with his old lady in his head....the sound of screeching tires...."Well ****. I better go get this guy before he kills somebody...." ...and saves a 'little' girl from death! She would've ended up dead before that was over. He saved her life.

I'm not much on cops, but this is another good instance fer needin' 'em around.

Oh, come on! Some of my best friends have been cops! I never held it against them! :D

not much on cops either....but always an exception to a rule!!!! He's a cool dude. This kid must have freaked cause he stands 6'2 and about 240. So when the article said "Officer Gerou overtook the dirver and took him into custody with no incident" I can visualize this......
