Story here. His MySpace page has been deleted, but you can check out the uber-douchebag photos in the gallery of the NY Daily News article.Apparently Torres figured he could use his cop training, flash his "get out of jail free" badge and the PA cops would show him some professional courtesy, him being a fellow member of the Thin Blue Line and all, and let him tool on back to NYC, gun and money in tow.At least the PA cops know how to do their job!This robbery also has the distinction of being the only time a Toyota Scion has been used as a getaway car!
