Since the cancellation of Whose Line Is It Anyway?, it appears this Ryan Stiles doppelgänger/stuntman has fallen on hard times.

This week, an unidentified male suspect walked out of Walmart with hundreds of dollars worth of lawn and garden merchandise.

Kind of makes you think… How does Drew Carey get those Showcase Showdown items on The Price Is Right turned around so quickly? 😂

If you have any information, please contact NBPD Dispatch at (740) 456-4109.

And yes, this is the same man….. Different cameras, different lighting.

This weekend, this clearance rack Duck Dynasty power couple wondered into Casa Grande still smelling like low tide and bad decisions. While sitting in their booth stuffing their faces with complementary chips and salsa, they planned their next “hunt” and locked onto the fiercest prey in the building: an unattended purse. The true apex predator of the restaurant world. Naturally, after striking out in the wild, this couple snatched the unattended purse and waddled out feeling accomplished…… Completely forgetting this particular “hunt” comes with cameras, witnesses, and a court date instead of a tailgate.

If anyone has any information in regard to their identity, please contact the New Boston Police Department at (740)456-4109.
