Dearborn Cop Shoots Hoops At Street Court, Steals The Show [VIDEO]

DEARBORN (CBS DETROIT) White cops and black kids are often times together in the news for all the wrong reasons.

Perhaps that's why this particular video is so popular.

Someone captured a moment when a white cop grabbed a basketball from a group of  young men playing on a court in what looks like a city park and effortlessly nailed a three-point shot.

It's been retweeted more than 10,000 times.

They all cheer at the end.

Note that Dearborn is adjacent to Dearborn Heights, the city where Renisha McBride, an unarmed black teenager who was allegedly lost and confused after a car accident, was shot in the face by a white man, Paul Wafer, 54, who said he felt threatened when she banged on his front door.
