i read that it's from the archaic verb "cop" which means "to seize", so the old brits used to call them coppers, then that got shortened to cop, and it's still in use today.
Archaic? I think we use this word in modern English, as in, "to cop a feel."
cop as in a feel i think has a different meaning as to cop a criminal.
