LINCOLN, Neb. - A not-so-swift-minded suspect gave authorities a pseudonym Tuesday, forgetting he was wearing a lanyard with his real name on it, police said.

Officers responded to a domestic assault call at 10:30 p.m. knowing they would be contacting Markel Towner, 26, who has two warrants for his arrest, police said.

When investigators arrived, they found Towner seated in a vehicle out front of the house they were called to.

After a brief struggle, Towner was taken into custody.

Maybe his roots go back to a former Italian Africa colony?
