Sometimes, the headlines just write themselves.
In a recently-circulated video, a man is caught by law enforcement officers after attempting to elude them by hiding in a trash can.
They found the guy because the homeowners (or renters, who knows) had a Ring doorbell set up and had cameras at the front and back of their house.
The officer and woman converse through the doorbell, and he asks her to take a look through her footage to see if she can see a guy in a red shirt.
Sure enough, she does — he’s still hiding in her trash can.
The officers get him to hop out, and while he continues to run, he is eventually caught and arrested. I can’t confirm it, but it does appear as though no one was injured.
Check out the footage below — it might be time to invest in a smart doorbell.
