Imagine being dumb enough to shoplift. Then imagine how much more stupid you have to be to think you can outrun a horse.

The horse is like “homie, I ain’t bulletproof!”

I've seen these horses patrolling. They're huge, all draft or draft crosses.

Cop: "you may outrun me, but you ain't gonna outrun my horse!" 😂 😂 😂

I’d never run from the cops anyway but I’d certainly stop just to pet and admire such a beautiful creature!!

Imagine being a cop on a horse following a crook into the road while yelling stop you’re being detained.
