18-year-old Joshua Dodson was wanted by the police.
Then he chose a creative way to avoid being discovered.
He hid in a teddy bear, writes Sky News.
British police were looking for Joshua after he stole a car and drove it without a valid license and fled a petrol station without paying.
When police turned up at the flat just outside Manchester, they couldn’t find the teenager, until they saw a large soft teddy bear – which was breathing.
In the teddy bear, Joshua sat trapped among all the cotton.
The punishment for the measure was in the end nine months in prison, the British police confirm Twitter.
