Halloween is just around the corner and that means it’s time for tricks and treats. Tricks like toilet papering old people’s houses, leaving flames bags of dog leavings on old people’s doorsteps and dressing up as an escaped convict and darting out in traffic, possibly in front of very very old people.

According to the Associated Press, a man dressed as an escaped convict to fool his friends and became a convict himself.

The man dressed himself in handcuffs and an orange jumpsuit to complete the outfit. He was either trying to dress up as a convict or a very evil carrot.

The man ran into a field where a motorist spotted him and called 911 to report the rampaging of a large, evil carrot.

Police later learned the man was just trying to play a prank on his friends. Police seemed confused how dressed up as a large carrot could be a prank in the first place, and then took him to jail for disorderly conduct.
