If you have ever watched Scooby Doo cartoons, you know what happens at the end. Daphne does all the work and solves the mystery, then the authorities pull off the mask and the monster is actually Mr. Wickies.
31 year-old Sean Miller of Cape Cod Massachusetts would have gotten away with his alleged heroin dealing, if the cops didn’t figure out that he was wearing a very realistic old-guy mask, while hiding out since April.
Here are more details from Masslive.com:
Shaun Miller, 31, of Hyannis, had been on the run from law enforcement since April – when he was indicted along with a number of other alleged gang members for drug trafficking.
Miller allegedly had been part of a larger drug distribution network that police believed was responsible for selling large amounts of heroin in and around the Cape.
On Thursday, police surrounded a house in South Yarmouth where they believed Miller had been staying and ordered him to exit the residence. After a few moments, what appeared to be an “elderly man” emerged from the building.
However, police soon discovered that the “elderly man” was actually Miller in disguise. After pulling off his mask, police placed Miller under arrest.
After Miller had been placed in custody, police searched the house where he had been staying and subsequently discovered nearly $30,000 in cash, as well as two loaded firearms that had been stashed inside of a laundry basket.
He was able to hide out since April so his mask did the trick for a while, but he probably needed to work on his fake limp.
