Alabama Police Department Roasts Suspect Seen Making Getaway On A Stolen Lawnmower

Alabama Police Department Roasts Suspect Seen Making Getaway On A Stolen Lawnmower

Police in Flomaton, Alabama sought the public's help identifying a woman whose criminal antics were caught on camera. A Facebook post eventually identified her, but not before the people (and the police department) had a little bit of fun.

The ability to just hop on Facebook and have your crimes solved is one of the perks of small town policing - and Flomaton is a very small town. According to Google, the 2010 census indicated a population of 1,440 people.


The Facebook page that solved this mystery has about 6.6k followers as we write this. That's already a significantly larger number of people than actually live there, but we expect that number to climb even higher thanks to whoever was manning the keys for this post.

An unidentified woman was caught on camera fleeing on/with the victims "stuff" - riding away on a stolen lawnmower that was towing a stolen trailer full of stolen goods. The trailer has a flat tire.

When your town has less people in it than some people's office buildings, and you're posting to a group with six times as many people as the population, you're pretty much guaranteed to solve the mystery.

It's a small town in Alabama - everyone knows everything anyway.

So why not have some fun while you post?


Their Facebook post reads:

"Do you know them? Please Share!!! If you have any information on this subject's identity, please notify us! Help us get our victim's "stuff" back!!!"
"Little facts to provide to you:"
"The Lawnmower she is riding = Reported Stolen from a residence"
"The trailer she is pulling = Reported Stolen from a residence"
"The items in the trailer = Reported Stolen from a residence"
"The Alabama A = Represents the Chief's Favorite Football Team, but is also stolen"
"The person driving the lawnmower = Identity Needed"

The comments are where things really got going, though.

Unsurprisingly, the thief's identity was quickly unmasked.

We can only assume the department has been working on returning the "stuff" back.

Jesse Watters Has Complete Meltdown After Republicans Lose The Midterms—And We're Grabbing The Popcorn

Fox News host Jesse Watters expressed sheer disbelief after Democrats swept midterm election races to win back both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate in a clear repudiation of the Trump administration.

A Trump advisor told CNN that the election results were "essentially too big to rig." President Donald Trump has said he accepts the results and even acknowledged that his widely unpopular war in Iran played a significant role in pushing Americans to vote for Democrats. Affordability concerns, chief among them the price of gas, also contributed to the backlash Republicans experienced at the voting booth.

97-Year-Old Man Goes Viral After Making 'Dramatic Exit' By Passing Away At His Own Birthday Party

Most people turning 97 might settle for cake, a few birthday cards, and an early bedtime. Not Vito. This man wanted a Halloween birthday rager, and apparently, he wasn't taking requests for a quieter evening.

Vito, whose last name has not been publicly reported, got his wish. The California birthday boy spent the celebration dancing with friends to the Bee Gees' "Stayin' Alive" before unexpectedly passing away at the party. The extraordinary celebration was originally documented on TikTok by Los Angeles baker Eden Malinoff, although her original videos are no longer available.
