US Police use 'LinkedIn, FB, Insta, Tinder' meme to hunt for burglar
Cleveland Police in the US used the 'LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Tinder' viral meme started by singer Dolly Parton to launch hunt for a burglar. The police said that 32-year-old Scott Mizsei was wanted over an aggravated burglary and urged people not to approach him. The post gained over 500 reactions, 100 comments and nearly 200 shares in an hour.
