I thought this may be a fun thread. I was reminded of it with Stack's classic line "Do NOT approach him. He is armed and extremely dangerous!" I seriously hope no one would ever consider actually walking up to someone they thought was a fugitive
The only time I ever thought I saw an actual fugitive was several years ago when I thought I saw Jesse James Hollywood (this was before he was actually caught), sitting in the passenger side of a car. I was creeped out- it looked like him and everything, very arrogant. Though I'm still not so sure. It could have been a lookalike, but I didn't get enough of a look at him. I was pretty young at the time, but if a similar situation were to happen now, I would write down the license plate number and everything. As for actors, this past year of college, one of my professors looked like the killer in the Tom Johnson segment- creepy! One time when he got annoyed at the class and I was instantly reminded of the segment! On a funny note, my theology professor looked like a dead ringer for Bob Bean! Sounded like him and everything, too. Even had that smirk (though he was really pleasant and not snarky at all). |

I usually don't see people, but I'll see vehicles that match descriptions from UM. Like last week - I saw a brown Ford Pinto on my street. Also, I saw a truck once that resembled the truck from the Connecticut shooting story.

I've never seen vehicles that looked familiar from segments, but I am reminded of some of the personalized license plates mentioned on the show whenever I see a particularly strange one.

I've mentioned this before, but the sketch of Dorothy Wackers' assailant looks exactly like a picture of my dad when he was in high school.
I went to a military training course a few years ago with a guy who looked so much like the actor who portrayed Ed Baker I think of HIM, not the actor or the actual Baker, whenever the case is brought up. When she was younger my mom looked a little like Gayle Delano's sister. |

I think my best friend's dad was a dead ringer for Duane McCorkendale (in the photo where he holds their baby) when he was younger, they had the same beard and everything.

My friend's sister looked a lot like one of the pictures of Aimee Willard. I also know someone who looks a lot like Annette Burnside's mother. |

My high school guidance counselor looked exactly like Chuck Smith - the rich guy from Texas who kidnapped his two sons Charles and Christopher from their mother. They looked like they could have been twins.
