MUNCIE - ERIK Estrada has returned to Muncie to take part in overnight police patrols in the city where he starred in the short-lived reality series Armed & Famous.

The former star of the 1970s motorcycle cop TV drama, Chips, is a reserve officer on the Muncie Police Department.

The 60-year-old actor plans to work three nights this week, patrolling city streets from 11 pm to 7 am.

He took target practice at the police gun range on Wednesday. On Saturday, he plans to help officers at a charity event.

Estrada filmed Armed & Famous for CBS in Muncie in the winter of 2006-07. He and several other celebrities patrolled the city as reserve officers.

He also returned to Muncie last winter to keep up his reserve officer status. -- AP
