Maybe it's Rachel's ex Russ? No word yet if the police in Blackpool have caught the wanted man who looks curiously similar to David Schwimmer.Β
This guy must be absolutely hating all of the attention he's been getting. A screen grab of the robber, who stole a crate of beer for his sins from a convenience store, has been doing the rounds on social media and people were quick to notice similarities between him and a certain paleantologist.
Luckily, it's not the actual Ross from 'Friends' as police have confirmed that Schwimmer wasn't in the country at the time of the incident, so we can rest easy on that one.
For now though, let's enjoy the response this poor guy has been getting online:
Honestly, the Ross-from-Friends lookalike robber story might be my favourite of 2018 pic.twitter.com/o0LEdKUbMZ

As his face is currently plastered all over the place, we're sure it won't be long before the police catch the can-napper.

*Update: David Schwimmer has responded:
Officers, I swear it wasn't me.
As you can see, I was in New York.
To the hardworking Blackpool Police, good luck with the investigation.#itwasntme pic.twitter.com/EDFF9dZoYRβ schwim (@DavidSchwimmer) October 24, 2018
