In this undated photo released Wednesday Oct. 24, 2018, by Britain's Blackpool Police, showing an alleged thief bearing a striking resemblance to Ross Geller, the character played by actor David Schwimmer on the TV show &quot;Friends.&quot; Blackpool police posted surveillance-camera footage asking for witnesses to identify their suspect, and thousands of social media users highlighted the suspect's likeness to Schwimmer's US sitcom character. The actor then responded with a Twitter video that shows him scuttling furtively through a convenience store clutching a carton of beer, and Schwimmer wrote: &quot;Officers, I swear it wasn't me. As you can see, I was in New York.&quot; and he wished police well with the investigation. The Police have said Schwimmer is not part of their investigation, confirming that &quot;David Schwimmer was in America on this date.&quot; (Blackpool Police via AP)
