Shout Out To This Guy Who Found The Best Hide-And-Seek Spot When The Cops Came To Arrest Him

 

Daily Mail- A photo of a man who hid on a roof while police searched for him has gone viral. The domestic abuse suspect crawled out onto the roof of the blue-shingled home at 600 block of Lafayette Avenue NE in Grand Rapids, Michigan, while police combed the house looking for him on July 31, reported MLive. Someone across the street snapped the photo of police fruitlessly searching for the roof-riding suspect and posted it online to Imgur. It has now been viewed almost three million times on Imgur, where it was uploaded by someone with the handle ‘Richdakilla.’ He captioned it, ‘They’ve been looking for him for 10 minutes.’ ‘While domestic violence isn’t funny – that picture sure is,’ wrote someone on MLive.  ‘Oh, [Grand Rapids] police, you never cease to amaze me,’ another person commented on Imgur. The photo was subsequently shared on Reddit.  ‘He’s looking at you like ‘don’t you f***ing rat me out,” snarked someone on Reddit, where the photo has over 1000 comments. The picture appears to show hapless police unable to locate the suspect while he lurks directly above them on the roof, but Grand Rapids law enforcement defended itself, saying that cops had formed a perimeter around the house and did indeed spot the suspect on the roof. Police say the man was ordered off the roof and taken into custody on domestic dispute charges.

 

 

The only thing I can compare the feeling of how that guy must’ve felt when the cops straight up couldn’t find him in the house is when we were kids and we’d hide in the clothes racks at the store.  It was the greatest most exhilarating feeling ever.  Like you were getting away with a crime (that guy literally was getting away with a crime until they found him). Your Mom would be having a heart attack and picturing your face on the local nightly news because she couldn’t find you and you’d be thinking, “She doesn’t know!  I’m right fucking here in the clothes rack and she doesn’t know!  I’m the best hider this or any other universe has ever seen.  I might never leave.”  That has to be how that guy felt on the roof.  So obvious, yet so not obvious.  And yeah, they eventually found the guy but only because this person snitched on him and snapped a picture.  It was for the best because he was wanted on domestic abuse charges but still.  Great hiding spot.
