MART, Texas (KWTX) – A man who joked on Facebook that “having warrants is basically the adult version of hide-and-seek” was arrested within a week, according to Mart police.

The Mart Police Department, along with members of the Groesbeck Police Department’s Joint Criminal Apprehension Team (JCAT) and the McLennan County Sheriff’s Office, including the K-9 Unit, served a narcotics search warrant in the 200 block of South Smyth Street in Mart.

While officers were on scene, they discovered that some individuals had outstanding felony warrants unrelated to the drug case.

According to police, one of those suspects had recently posted on Facebook, saying, “Having warrants is basically the adult version of hide-and-seek.”
