Farina was an eighteen year veteran of the Chicago police force when he was cast in his first supporting role. He once claimed in an interview that as a Chicago cop he was such a bad shot, he earned the nickname "The Great Wounder."

That was an entertaining series, while it lasted, and I remember that I like the sound track. Any idea who did it?
