“I don’t think it’s been this guy’s day, his week, his month or even his year….” said one comment.
Noting that the thief was suspected of robbing a restaurant, one commenter called for leniency.
“Lay off him. He grew up with Monica. IF YOU DIDNT EAT FAST YOU DIDNT EAT,” it said.
One commenter referenced the song while playfully chiding the police department.
“I’m surprised you’ve not found him… it’s like you’re always stuck in second gear,” they wrote.
Blackpool Police responded to some of the 128,000 comments to let people know that they had investigated the matter, and the suspect is not, in fact, David Schwimmer.
“Thank you to everyone for your speedy responses. We have investigated this matter thoroughly and have confirmed that David Schwimmer was in America on this date. We’re so sorry it has to be this way,” the department posted on their Facebook page.
The suspect was photographed carrying a pack of beer. The department is looking for the man in question in relation to a theft at a restaurant on September 20, when a jacket, wallet, and cellphone were taken.
“Do you recognize this man? We want to speak to him in relation to a theft at a Blackpool restaurant on the 20th September. If you know who this is, please email 7798@lancashire.pnn.police.uk quoting log LC-20180920-0670. Thank you for your help,” Blackpool Police posted.
Media outlets have joined in the fun, confirming that the actor was not in the area at the time of the theft.
“Apparently the police had him cornered then he performed a pivot manoeuvre and escaped”????
