Police Bodycam Footage: Children Watch in Horror as Criminal in Chuck-E-Cheese Costume Arrested (VIDEO)

Children watched in horror as Tallahassee police officers arrested a criminal in a Chuck E Cheese costume this summer.

“We’re gonna detain the mouse,” an officer is heard saying as he entered the Chuck E Cheese restaurant and entertainment center.

The criminal in the mouse costume, identified as Jermel Jones, initially resisted arrest.

“Chuck E is a little bit busy, ma’am,” a police officer said to a woman who asked the mouse mascot to take a photo with her child. “Chuck E, come with me. Chuck E! Chuck E! Stop resisting! You’re being detained, stop resisting! Do not cause a scene here, sir!”

Jones, 41, was arrested for credit card theft.

Excerpt from Fox News:

Kids and parents watched as a Florida man dressed in a Chuck E. Cheese mascot costume was arrested for alleged credit card theft.

Police were tipped off about the alleged criminal activity by a woman who said she regularly visited the establishment and last had physical control of her card when she attended her child’s birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese on June 28, according to a probable cause affidavit.

Along with a log of alleged fraudulent charges, the victim provided police with footage of her debit card being used at an establishment “she did not shop at,” the affidavit said. The victim recognized Jones as an employee of Chuck E. Cheese.

Jones denied any wrongdoing, but the affidavit states that after he was placed under arrest, he advised an officer he found a credit card that day, and it was “on his person,” but he stated he “never used it.” Police say the card found in Jones’ left front pocket had the victim’s name on it.
