I don't know who had the better joke here, the prankster or the pranked? Maybe this is just hilarious all around.
According to WFLA, the Charlotte County Sheriff's Office got a real good laugh when someone went and slapped a "For Sale" sign on one of their patrol cars. But they seemed to have a good sense of humor about the whole thing after all.
The Charlotte County Sheriff's Office even posted a picture of the squad car on their Facebook, pretending to be all bummed out that nobody was interested in buying it.
Despite its high mileage and idling hours, the sheriff’s office wanted to make it known that this baby still had plenty of life left in it.
Not to mention many more stories to tell. They even joked about how cramped the back seats were, saying only the real homies ride shotgun anyway.
Charlotte County Sheriff's Office Responds:
Although the patrol car wasn't actually up for sale, the Charlotte County Sheriff's office thought the prank was pretty funny.
However, they also had to make sure to lay down the law and tell everyone to keep their hands off their rides. Even if it's fun.
Keep in mind, just because the vehicle in the picture seems like it's abandoned in the middle of nowhere, but don't be so easily fooled because it's still ready to roll whenever duty calls.
So I wouldn't recommend going up to a parked squad car to try to be cute. There may be someone waiting for you inside. And they might not be in the mood for jokes.
If you really want to laugh, I'd say maybe get a good romantic comedy or maybe binge-watch your favorite episodes of Cops. The drunks on that show are hilarious. It might just be safer in the long run for everyone involved.
Florida Woman Makes Viral Post With Sheriff Vehicle, Gets Busted For Drug Possession
Time for the story of Talea Saylor, who ran afoul of the Charlotte County Sheriff's Office in Englewood, Florida. It all started innocently enough when Talea posed on top of a Charlotte County Sheriff vehicle. The suv was parked at a dealership and she saw this as a perfect opportunity for a viral post. Unfortunately the Sherriff's Office saw the post. What do you think they're doing when they're parked on the side of the road? Scrolling, no doubt.
I'm sure they were annoyed by this woman standing on their vehicle, but the picture is a little blurry. No way you can identify her. Until....
From the Charlotte County Sheriff's Office: "A few days later, one of our Marine Patrol deputies was in the area of Chadwick Cove and noticed two suspects on a familiar 26ft sailboat. The owner of the boat was arrested the day prior and had not yet been released from jail. Contact was made with boat owner via the jail watch commander who advised he did not give anyone permission to be on his boat."
Talea Saylor
I'm sure she was just holding the meth for someone else.
On The Boat
Her accomplice, Briar Bloomer. Facing the same charges. How did these two manage to get a boat off the dock? At least they're wearing life jackets. Safety first!
