A man was travelling down a highway late one night, in a rush to meet his family who were waiting for him in a nearby city where they were holidaying.
A policeman noticed how fast he was going and pulled him over.
"Are you aware of how fast you're going?" the policeman asked.
"Yes I am, I'm trying to escape a robbery I was involved with," the man replied.
The policeman gave him a skeptical look and said: "Were you the one being robbed?"
The man casually replied: "No I committed the robbery."
The policeman was shocked that the man admitted this. "So you're telling me you were speeding, and committed a robbery?"
"Yes," the man said calmly. "I have the loot in the back."
The policeman began to get angry. "Sir, I'm afraid you have to come with me," he said as he reached in the window to subdue the man.
"Don't do that!" the man yelled fearfully. "I'm scared you will find the gun in my glove compartment."
The policeman pulled his hand out and said: "Wait here."
He called for backup and soon police cars and helicopters were flooding the area.
The man was cuffed quickly and taken towards a car. However, before he got in, a policeman walked over to him and said, while gesturing to the other cop that pulled him over: "Sir, this officer informed us that you had committed a robbery, had stolen loot in the trunk of your car, and had a loaded gun in your glove department. However, we found none of these things in your car."
"Yeah, and I bet that liar said I was speeding too!" the man replied.
