WSB-TV 2 Atlanta reporter Tom Regan caught up with a man who along with his brother had been arrested moments after running an elderly driver off into a ditch.
When officers arrived at the local precinct, the local News 2 crew was waiting. Regan approached one suspect who remained cuffed in the back seat of a cruiser and inquired into his involvement in the reported burglary, but he was unwilling to confess to the crime, and initially reluctant to speak to the press. But before long that all changed.
“Hell naw. Bruh, get away from the car bruh. I don’t wanna talk,” the suspect said in response to a question on whether he was guilty of the burglary. When Regan followed up by asking why he was in police custody if he hadn’t committed a crime, the suspect then replied: “I don’t know. I have no idea sir. Why you got hair coming out your nose?” The suspect then cracked a smile and laughed along with the reporter.
“My bad mom. My bad. I’ll be home in a couple of days,” he’d get around to saying when asked if he had any words for loved ones who may have been watching the broadcast.
