Los Angeles is officially on notice - Lou Ferrigno is now officially an LA sherriff’s deputy. Gotta give the guy credit, even though the position is mainly a public relations deal (the former Incredible Hulk will be working with kids and helping with recruitment), he’s not doing this half-assed. Ferrigno actually trained for the job, and apparently did rather well.

“My father was a police officer with the New York Police Department; I’ve always had a high respect for officers,” Ferrigno told The Associated Press.

Ferrigno began training to become a reserve deputy last September after passing a background check. He completed training in firearms, first aid, and high-speed driving techniques and was recognized as “an outstanding trainee” by Sheriff Lee Baca.

Ferrigno will serve at least 20 hours a month, help recruit new deputies and work with the sheriff’s Youth Activities League and the Special Victims Bureau, which assists abused children.
