Need help on the fake Officer Wilson (Ferguson) photo

I have searched on DU and on the web - a motorcycle driver face planted
(Czech I think) and this is being spread on Facebook and elsewhere as Officer Wilson from the F'edPD.

I can't find the link.

Please help. Sorry for the trivial post but I see this popping up on FB a lot.

Jim McNeil crashed last week while riding at his friend's house and broke bones in his forehead, cheek, nose, jaw and eye socket. Yeah, he's gnarly! Get well soon bro. We'll let Jim tell ya what happened...

Jim McNeil, alias "Jumpin' Jimmy", is one of the best all-round FMX riders in the industry. With over nine years of experience as a professional rider, the Arizona native has traveled all over the world and is quick to adapt to new set ups and surroundings, meaning he has the ability to throw down tricks in new locations and in front of huge crowds just as if he was chilling back home in his yard where he learned to ride at the tender age of six.

The count was 900 or so shares. By today it is 35,000.

Sigh.
