Los Angeles Cop Jams With Garage Band

(TeamRock) A video of a Los Angeles Sheriff's deputy joining a garage rock band's jam session has been shared online. Deputy Miguel Garcia was wrapping up an investigation in the Compton neighborhood with his partner when he overheard teenage band Misled Youth rehearsing in their back garden down the street.

He decided to pay the group a visit - and started playing guitar with them. He tells CBS: "I was goofing off and I told my partner, 'Wow they sound really good.' Garcia, who can be heard playing The Offspring song The Kids Aren't Alright in the clip, recalls getting his first guitar aged 15, and says that music shaped his adolescence.

Garcia tells CBS: "It only made sense to encourage the members of the band. It's better they're here than on the streets." Read more and watch the video clip here.
