Just hope no one turned on the TV...:wow:

6-Foot-Tall Fugitive Found Hiding Inside TV Set

POSTED: 7:35 am EST January 18, 2005

BAINBRIDGE, Ga. -- The hunt for a fugitive sounds like something you might see on TV.

But in this case the suspect wasn't on TV but in the TV. Authorities got a tip last week that a man who escaped from police in Florida might be in Decatur County, Ga.

Officers searched a mobile home where a woman told them Alfred Blane was hiding under a mattress. Officers searched, but didn't find the man. They even looked in a freezer and washing machine.

Authorities said a police dog kept sniffing around an old, floor model TV. When deputies pulled off the back of the set, they found Blane curled up inside. It was tight squeeze. He's about 6 feet tall.
