You just can’t escape the long arm — or gallop — of the law.

Apparently, getting pulled over by an officer on a horse is a thing.

Detroit has a storied Mounted Unit that was founded in 1893. As part of the arrangement between Wayne State University Police and the Detroit Police Department, there’s a mounted horse as part of WSUPD.

Last year, Wayne State took the opportunity to add a mounted component as the Detroit Police had more horses than officers to ride them.

A video making the rounds online by Twitter user Sam_Farrah12 shows impressive and entertaining police work.

A car that looks like it’s a Toyota Camry goes by the mounted officer and off he goes down Anthony Wayne Drive near Warren.

Enjoy.
