It is a state by state thing and might even be an agency by agency thing. I have a friend that was the manager of a grocery store for 20 years and the store got sold. The owners fired him. So he decided he wanted to be a cop. He became a reserve at the age of 45 and just got hired on full time. He has always been in pretty good shape though and when he became a reserve he joined the gym and hit it hard 4 days a week to get himself in great shape.

A lot of agencies like hiring people that are a little older. They have been around the block a few times, normally are less excitable and tend to be a little more wise.
