Dover Delaware police officer Jeff Davis, a cop for over 19 years, is now a viral video star.

From USA Today:

While reviewing dashcam footage, the Dover Police Department in Delaware said they "found video of something quite amusing": an officer jamming to Taylor Swift's "Shake It Off."

 

The department said, "We decided we would share some with you in a new Web series called "DashCam Confessionals."

 

"We hope you enjoy this...and Taylor Swift, if you're watching...we're sorry."

 

The video was staged, said Mark Hoffman, spokesman for Dover Police Department. "This was done in fun," he added. Hoffman said the production took about 15 minutes to tape.

Now the YouTube video posted on Jan. 16 has more than 8 million views.

 

How did Taylor Swift react to this...homage?

On Sunday, the police department highlighted a Twitter response from Swift. The singer said, "LOLOLOLOL THE SASS."

 

Davis, a 48 year old father, says he learned the words from listening to the song with his 10 year old daughter.
