Police Constable, Hit By Car, Gets Up, Tazes Suspect Who Hit Him

Dan Pascoe, an English police officer, was sent hurtling into the air after he was hit by a stolen BMW on a highway near London.

That’s certainly bad news — but what happened next is what has people calling the mild-mannered officer a “Real-life Robocop” and a “Supercop.”

Just moments after being struck by the car and launched into the air, Pascoe managed to get up, chase down the driver and stop him with a taser,according to The Associated Press.

He recounted the incident, which occurred on July 3 and was caught by a police camera, in a video posted by ITN News (video available below).

“I remember thinking, ‘This is going to be close,’” Pascoe says in the video. “And then all of a sudden, all I remember is I’m in the air, looking down at the tarmac ground, and thinking, ‘Oh dear, this hasn’t turned out the way it was planned.”

We’d sure say so.
