We'd call the sketch a fail - but it actually worked. That's right: police in Lancaster Pennsylvania were actually able to identify a theft suspect based on this crude amateur witness sketch. The simple black and white drawing has led to a search for suspect Hung Phuoc Nguyen, who is wanted for stealing cash from a Pennsylvania farmer's market. As the hunt for Nguyen continues, people on Twitter are having their fair share of fun - even pointing out the resemblance to our favorite amateur sketch of all time - this Alabama leprechaun.
I need a Netflix series on the witness that did the sketch. I’m also looking into getting put in The Louvre.
