A woman was caught by police after she tried to hide from them by placing a washing basket on her head.
The Derbyshire Police turned up at the woman's home after she failed to attend court and told the officers that she will hand herself in on Monday, the Metro reports.
However, in order to try and fool the officers, the woman placed the white basket on her head.
But her torso and legs were still poking out underneath.
The police took a picture of the disguise and posted it onto Twitter, captioning the snap: "Female located and arrested for failing to appear at court.
"It's all well and good saying "I'll hand myself in on Monday" - you should have turned up last week when you were told to!!!
"She even tried to hide when we saw her but she was far from good at hide and seek #OffToCourt (sic)"
Even Monty Python couldn’t top that!....................
The Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal is a vicious wild animal from the planet of Traal, known for its never-ending hunger and its mind-boggling stupidity.
The Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy calls the bugblatter the stupidest creature in the entire universe - so profoundly and mind-bogglingly stupid that, if you can't see it, it assumes it can't see you.
Worst invisibility cloak evah!
Could’ve worked for Hillary . . .
My cats do that sometimes — stick their heads under the bedspread so we can’t see them. But... they’re cats.
She would need a 55 gallon drum.....................
LOL. My dog used to do the same thing. If you yelled at him, he’d put his head behind the couch or under the table and think that no one saw him.
“Is that you, Dave”?
Dave’s not here man!
Hey, it worked for me
She apparently was not aware that one is not supposed to wear WHITE after Labor day!!!
I believe it was in the Andy Sipowitz show that the cops a bad guy bought a lotion that made him invisible and when a couple of cops played along with him he led them to the stash...
If this woman would have gotten away with it had she had a red basket to blend in with her shirt or at least a blue one to match her pants.
One of my cats thinks if she cannot see you, you cannot see her.
In a cat, that’s cute. In a human...
Nope, still looks like Hillary.
What the heck!
She had a shower curtain right there!
Two or three steps and she would have been behind a shower curtain.
They never would have found her!
In a 2 year old human it is adorable. In anyone older than that it is, well I don’t know how to exactly put it.
“The stupid... it burns” is about as close as I can get.
Showing they are no more smart than a cat?
No wonder we had to bail out Blighty in WW1 and WW2 !
That laundry hamper didn’t get three feet off the ground all by itself. It had help!
Sort of like seeing a turtle on a fence pole.
