Larry "The Badger" Macer is a recurring character on The Rookie, played by Greg Grunberg.

Biography[]

Macer was a former police officer at the LAPD, before being quickly dismissed following a mishap where his gun fired during his very first roll call ("New Blood").

Macer returns in "Backstabbers"; he subsequently became a sergeant for the State Coast Freight Police (after some intensive re-training). Macer has used his experience to better himself. Although he is teased by the visiting LAPD officers (except John Nolan) he was able to overcome this and correctly deduced that William Bloomfield hid his remaining fortune in secret accounts. He further impressed the visitors with his knowledge of the train system, which led to finding Bloomfield's children trying to steal the key to his fortune. After detaining the murderous oldest child, Macer is allowed to make the arrest and officially earns the respect of LAPD (and a group hug).
