My local police needed buy a few SUVs with more space in the back because their regular patrol cars couldn't seat obese people.

Imagine how much worse your day gets when you're already being arrested then the cop has to request a bigger cruiser to take you away
"Someone call for a paddy cause we got a fatty"
The police here mostly traded in their chargers for Explorers
That's very accommodating of them, instead of separating his shoulders trying to force just the one handcuff.
I guess not all cops are bastards. /s
Fat recognizes fat
Surprisingly accommodating for a cop. Most would just force the guys arms anyway and laugh when it hurt him
Cop probably ran out of strength. It's not as if they're particularly healthy either, after all.
I live outside a larger city and in my town there's maybe one cop I've seen who I thought had a chance at beating me in a footrace.
dont need to beat you in a footrace when they can just shoot you 37 times in the chest
Through the back that is. You threatened the cop b farting on the run after all
The reality is that even if they're pretty in shape, they wear enough gear and body armor that running in that stuff is going to be quite a workout. If you and the cop are equal runners with no gear, you're going to beat him by a mile when he has his gear on.
My friend I'm talking about officers that are 6' 270lbs and it ain't muscle. These cops are obese.
Notice what the arrestee's skin color is. That's why the cop didn't force his arms back.
Police now targeting big crime.
They just caught a big fish
I heard they have to let you go if they forget to bring the seat belt extender.
Nice try wide guy
Was this necessary…it’s not like he’s going to run anywhere. I guess the cuffing is symbolic.
I'm surprised the cuff goes around the wrist
Yeah there's no fat people in Europe you got us
It's all about percentages and level of obesity.
There's also the black and white police cars
I thought that was a pattern on his shirt at first
a picture that represents more the Empire (aka USA) than McDonalds and Coca Cola
Must be arresting some connected gangster with some police on his payroll. There's no other explanation I can imagine for why they wouldn't hurt him as much as possible.
