There are times when texting can be dangerous to your health. They don’t usually add “and your liberty” but that was the case for a pair of North Carolina teens.
Police in Terrell, NC, had been called to a series of break-ins at businesses, then went to the apartment of a 16-year-old suspect, who promptly fled, outrunning officers. However, Mayor Coy Reid told local paper the Hickory Daily Record, “when we lost track of him, the deputies searched several nearby areas. One of the deputies walked about 50 yards from where the suspect was last seen, and found him laying down behind a tree.”
