PHOTO: [UPDATED] A man with outstanding warrants jumped into water to avoid being arrested, officials say. Multiple cops were searching the murky creek and bushes along Cedarbridge Avenue this evening after a man wanted by police jumped into it to avoid being apprehended and arrested by police.
At least one officer jumped into the water after the suspect.
Officers were unable to locate the man.
It’s unknown what the suspect is wanted for.
UPDATE: 11:00 PM. The suspect, a resident of Tent City, was located at the homeless camp and was taken into custody.
TLS-CCP/TLS-89/TLS-PACC.
Now THAT is just plain awesome!
kudos to the cop(s) who jumped in after the man, that was really courageous. Hope you guys didn’t catch a cold! Thank you!!
guess he,s up a creek with no paddle….just warrents.!!!!
Now that gives “up the creek” a new twist
stupid is as stupid does
Good Job LPD!
Cuddos to LPD always ready to make a splash
Time for a K9 and aviation support,we need it.
not surprised to see a tent city resident turn out to be (moderated).
while all of you people donate and baby these people, they are the ones stealing from you when your not looking, or could be the ones to attack you, invade your homes, or g*d forbid hurt your children.
-keep encouraging them to stick around… maybe you will finally learn.
I don’t think you will ever get Aviation Support in this town..will have to use the State Police birds..as for K9 well that too is a far fetched plan I believe
Thank you LPD for protecting us.
Mr. Conservative has a good point.
244 LPD would probably do a good job
let my people go!!
There are good and bad everywhere. Just because this person was from Tent City does not mean they are all bad. There is good and bad wherever you go, in every race, religion and nationality. Their life is hard enough, leave them alone, ARE THEY BOTHERING YOU???????????
