That's awesome.

Reminds me of nine years ago on Memorial Day when I was out for a run. Suddenly three cop cars converged on me at an intersection. Apparently a gas station had gotten robbed about five blocks away and the suspect fled on foot. And also, apparently, my body shape makes me look more like someone who runs because they held up a convenience store than an athlete.

The cops were very professional and quickly figured out I wasn't the suspect they were looking for. But they did ask me if I'd seen anyone else running in the area. Unfortunately I hadn't.
