Picked on the Wrong Guy

From today's New York Post:

Two rookie cops yesterday chased down a Queens punk who, after stalking their Police Academy classmate, bashed his skull with a baseball bat and stole his gun and handcuffs, authorities said.

The thug, Danny Fernandez, 21, looked for a cop for more than three hours before he pounced on Officer Joseph Cho at around 1 a.m. on 102nd Street and 39th Avenue in Jackson Heights, sources said.

Fernandez was nabbed moments later by fleet-footed Officer Patrick Lynch...

Lynch is just out of college, where he was on the track team.
