A suspect was wanted for possession of a controlled substance.
In an interesting turn of events, a suspect has been arrested after giving away their location by farting loudly, police said.
Officers were able to sniff out the hiding suspect thanks to the incident in Liberty, Missouri, over the weekend.
We can't make this stuff up.
The Clay County Sheriff's Office posted the incident on social media.
“The person was arrested over the weekend on a Clay County warrant for Possession of a Controlled Substance. We've gotta give props to @LibertyMissouri Police for using their senses to sniff him out!"
On Twitter they added:
“Thanks to @SheriffClayCo for airing out a wanted person's dirty laundry and fanning the flames."
"The Liberty Police Department was surprised to see this incident slip out, which stinks for the arrestee."
"Fortunately, no one was injured during his arrest #nervousbelly #nocomment."
The amount of puns is amazing, and outstanding.
The incident caused great amusement for the Clay County Sheriff's Office's Facebook followers.
One commented:
“No need for the k9 to sniff that one out."
Another said:
"I never laughed out loud so much in my life. It took my 20 minutes to tell my husband what was so funny and now he can't stop laughing."
