Not much else to do in Washington D.C.

During a blizzard that may currently have you locked in your house going insane, a cop went beast mode and stiff armed a defender onto the next block last night on a snow clogged (and nearly impassable) Washington D.C. street. Whether or not the defender lost his footing, was afraid to hit stick a cop (kind of looked like this one), or simply tackled like a pickup Deion Sanders is unclear. You can be the judge of that. Anyway the officer's touchdown scamper comes just a day after we saw a Gainesville policeman dunk on what appeared to be about an eight-foot hoop. Both instances represent significantly more lighthearted causes for police footage going viral than the more common reason we've seen over the past few years.
