Hey, you guys, remember when I wrote about Dolton, Illinois, in the good old days and my relative the news man who reported on crazy police car chases after bad guys that wrecked lots of police cars and ended up in spectacular crashes? And you all said, oh, will you just get out of here with that, cops don't do stuff like that!
Well, they sure used to, and here's a news story from 1973 to prove it. I was nosing around in a storage shed and this time didn't disturb a shoe effer but did find some old news clippings, one of which was -- ta da! -- this one:
Popeye Doyle and Bullitt didn't have nothin' on these suburban cops back in the day. I can imagine that they were all Viet Nam vets.
