A domestic
abuse suspect is said to have evaded police for ten minutes - by lying on his
roof.
A picture of
the moment has gone viral after being posted to Imgur and then shared on
Reddit. It has been viewed nearly 3 million times.
Richdakilla uploaded the photo to the image-sharing site with the caption
“they’ve been looking for him for 10 minutes”.
The picture
appears to show a man lying on a roof, hiding from police who are standing
directly below him.
The Detroit Free Press reports that police were called to a
domestic dispute in Grand Rapids, Michigan, on July 31st.
On arrival at
the property the authorities reportedly had the door slammed in their faces.
Then, after gaining entry, they found the alleged victim but struggled to
locate the suspect.
Sgt. Terry
Dixon of the Grand Rapids police said that the picture does not show the extra
police who had formed a perimeter around the building.
These were
the officers who eventually spotted the man on the roof – leading to his arrest.
