Wanted Man Taunts Police On Facebook With Comment Saying 'Catch Me If You Can'

On a Facebook post about his warrant notice, a wanted man taunted cops, saying, "Catch me if you can."

Jordan Carr, 20, of Enfield, responded to a Bedfordshire Police request for assistance in finding him in connection with an incident that occurred in January of last year.

The post went on: "Carr has links to the Bedford area.

"He is described as approximately six-foot-tall, of medium build with short afro hair. He has the word 'Mum' tattooed on his hand and a small scar in the middle of his right hand."

"Catch me if u can," wrote Jordan Carr in response to the message on Facebook.

Detective Constable David Gordon, who is working on the case said: "We are asking for the public's help in locating Carr, as we would like to speak to him in connection with an incident in Kempston.

"If anyone knows of his whereabouts and is assisting him in any way, you may be at risk of committing a criminal offense."

A spokesperson for Bedfordshire police told my London on 3 March: "Jordan Carr is still wanted in connection with an incident we are investigating, and our officers are currently following several lines of inquiry."

Members of the public are asked not to approach him and instead to call 101 as soon as they see him or have some knowledge about his whereabouts, citing reference number 40/AD/15893/20.

You can also provide confidential details to the voluntary charity Crimestoppers by calling 0800 555 111.

This isn't the first time a wanted man has reacted to his warrant info on social media; in 2017, Michael Zaydel, also known on Facebook as Champagne Torino, made an unlikely deal with cops on Facebook and ended up turning himself in.

Zaydel issued a challenge on Facebook to the Redford Police Department, stating that if their next post received 1,000 shares, he would turn himself in, carry a dozen doughnuts to the station, and clean up litter around public schools.

The cops accepted the challenge and, as you would expect, completed the task in just over an hour.

Zaydel not only kept his promise, but he also showed up with a dozen doughnuts and a bagel.
