Did He Just Eat That?

Watch this awesome clip of this dude right after hes getting pulled over for a suspected bank robbery. He just sits there and acts like nothing is even going on. That's one gangsta bank robber if I've ever seen one. He should get off just for being so smooth about the whole thing. He's going away for years but still has the whereabouts to maybe save himself depending on what the hell it was on that paper he ate. Awesome. Here is today's caption craziness... let us know what you think that piece of paper he ate said on it.

TWINSBURG -- Police say a bank robbery suspect ate some of the evidence against him, when he gobbled a piece of paper while handcuffed and lying across the hood of a police cruiser.

A police video camera captured John Ford, 35, of Cleveland grabbing the paper with his mouth as police emptied his pockets.

"Once they got the suspect in handcuffs, they brought him back to the police cruiser, leaned him over the cruiser, and started searching him," explains Twinsburg Police Sgt. Greg Feketic.

Ford was arrested by Twinsburg police following a report of a bank robbery at the First Merit Bank on state Route 14 in Streetsboro Thursday.

"The primary search at that time is for weapons, so anything they find in the pockets, they're putting on the hood of the car," Sgt. Feketic told WKYC.

In Ford's pocket was a piece of paper, believed to be the note which threatened to shoot the bank teller unless she turned over the money.

Twinsburg Police were not aware Ford had eaten the paper until they talked with police in Streetsboro after the arrest.

"It's a piece of paper. You throw it out on the hood and you're probably not going to think anything of it," Sgt. Feketic said. "Until another police department says, 'hey by the way, did you possibly find a note on him?'"

Streetsboro Police Lt. Roy Mosley III says a bank employee was very observant during the stressful and dangerous situation.

"She was also to get not only a description of the car, but also the license plate," Lt. Mosley said, "so officers responding had good information to work with."

The eaten note was only one piece of evidence police say they have against Ford. They found money in a bag in his car, along with a bank dye pack that had exploded.

Ford is also now a suspect in at least two other bank robberies in Akron and Stow. He was being held in the Portage County Jail on one count of aggravated robbery.
