This story in The Age newspaper caught my attention: ‘He could be in the Olympics’: fugitive running wild
For those of you who can’t be bothered with the enormous task of clicking on a link, here are the relevant parts:
A dreadlocked fugitive has evaded several police nets set up to capture him in the past two days.
The 32-year-old has surprised police with his pace and stamina, each time managing to run away from his pursuers and vanish.
Sergeant Wayne Williams, of Healesville Police, said, ”If anyone approaches him he runs and I mean, he could be in the Olympics, because he can run. He’s quick and he can do incredible distances.”
Immediately, this scene from the movie Superbad came into my head [it's pretty sweary, so maybe headphones if you're at work]:
I’m pretty sure that’s an accurate portrayal of what’s happening up in Healesville…
Was it Chief Wiggum?
