ACT Policing has been moved by the strange passions of international police force rivalries to post the above video with this note:

AFP officers from national HQ and ACT Policing have responded to a ‘threat’ this morning here in Canberra… a dance-off challenge from our neighbours across the ditch.

So to our Kiwi rivals NZ Police Recruitment – kick off your jandals, sit back and relax with an ice cold drink from your chilly bin – here’s how it’s done.

Now over to you- FBI – Federal Bureau of Investigation & Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
Oh and Northern Territory Police, Fire and Emergency Services – we loved round one, can’t wait to see what else you’ve got! wink emoticon

And where are you Western Australia Police and Queensland Police Service?

Music: My Boo by the Ghost Town DJs

Apparently it was prompted by this:

A group of New Zealand police officers has been showing off some dance moves in a new video.
It was made as part of the Running Man Challenge, but also with the hope of convincing more people to join the police force.
The viral dance craze began recently when US basketball players posted a video of themselves doing the Running Man dance to a popular song from the 1990s.
