It’s a dream headline, a headline which we never thought we’d have the pleasure to write. But here we are.
Police in Missouri, US captured a man on the run today when he gave away his position via a loud fart. He was wanted for possession of a controlled substance.
It gets better, when announcing the news on Facebook, the Clay County Sheriff’s Office used the poop emoji.
“If you’ve got a felony warrant for your arrest, the cops are looking for you and you pass gas so loud it gives up your hiding spot, you’re definitely having a [poop emoji] day,” the Clay County Sheriff’s Office wrote in a Facebook post, “#ItHappened.”
When a TV station in Missouri requested more information on the case, the sheriff’s office responded with, “the person was arrested over the weekend on a Clay County warrant for Possession of a Controlled Substance. We’ve gotta give props to Liberty (Missouri) PD for using their senses to sniff him out!”
If we’ve deemed the news worthy enough to cover on The Brag, you can only imagine the field day they’re having over at the City of Liberty. In fact, the city even took to Twitter to thank the sheriff’s department for “airing out a wanted person’s dirty laundry and fanning the flames.”
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 https://t.co/mHPoPds3nv

This might just be the most toilet-humour news we’ve covered since Brisbane’s notorious “poo jogger” was identified.
