Huntington Beach Riot Vandal ‘Likes’ Police Photo Of Himself On Facebook

When police post photos to Facebook from a riot to try and identify people in them, a smart move would be to NOT ‘like’ one of those photo’s you happen to be in.

It makes you real easy to catch and makes you look pretty stupid.

According to Liast.com, there were recent riots in Huntington Beach, California after the U.S. Open of surfing. The Huntington Beach Police Department took to social media to help track down criminal suspects from the riots and put up 25 photos in hopes the public could help identify the people in them.

Well, one moron made it real easy on police. (The one pictured above) One of his friends tagged him in one of the photos, and he responded by ‘liking’ the photo and sharing it on Facebook. I’m pretty sure that as good as holding your hand up high and screaming, “It was me; I did it, arrest me!”

The 18-year-old was arrested and faces charges of vandalism. (For allegedly writing “**** the pigs” on the side of a police car.)

This guy was not the only stupid one to get busted either. Another 18-year-old took to Twitter to brag about what he did in the riots and was arrested. A handful of other arrests have been made since the photos were released.

What a bunch of morons.

I wonder how long before we actually have a "Social Media’s Most Wanted" list?
