While giving authorities fake names is most often a bad idea, a suspected drug dealer got himself arrested after the fake name he gave police turned out to have outstanding warrants.

Leading to the man’s arrest, a trooper initially saw a car pulled over to the side of the road in Michigan, USA, as per MLive on March 29. When the trooper turned his emergency lights on, the passenger immediately ducked down.

The trooper then approached the parked vehicle that had a female driver and a male passenger, whose names are currently withheld while no charges have been officially approved. The trooper asked for their names and after running them, he discovered that the male had an outstanding warrant.
