1st Precinct Community Affairs Detective Rick Lee is Hipster Cop. And Gothamist has the new Hipster Cop details Tumblr so desperately needs. Including:
-
Lee’s single, although it is unknown if he is “ready to mingle.”
-
He’s been a cop for close to 20 years, and his father was a member of the FDNY.
-
He likes both Coldplay AND Radiohead!
-
He’s actually been called “hipster cop” for years—the nickname originated with someone at the mayor’s office who was directing someone to Lee by saying, “Oh you’ll recognize him, he’s the hipster cop.”
-
His eyeglasses are actually Ray Ban sunglasses for J Crew which he modified by popping the tinted lenses out and putting in his own prescription. How DIY is that?!
