MEET the fitness-loving police officer who has amassed 21.6K followers on Instagram in just seven months after sharing side-splitting pictures and videos of her life on the beat which she hopes will change public opinion of the police.

Incredible photos show blonde bombshell Ashley Smith (29) from Onondaga County, NY, USA flexing her impressive biceps from the comfort of her patrol car, holding a raccoon that she rescued and getting ready to work out in the gym.

Hilarious video footage shows ditsy Ashley, who has been a cop for nine years, performing a comedy skit about returning to work after a holiday and forgetting what she has to do.

Despite this amusing routine, Ashley explained how her career hasn’t always been a bundle of laughs.


“To be honest the beginning of my career was very rough; I had a chief of police at my first agency that did not like women and who did everything in his power to get us fired,” she explained.

“There were four females hired at the same time and three of them were fired. They tried to fire me but I did nothing wrong for them to have any reason to, I’ll never forget being told by my boss that ‘women do not belong in this field’ and that I was meant to be ‘seen and not heard’. I cried.
