Fugitive almost fools police with elderly man disguise

Police hunting a suspected drug trafficker were almost fooled when he tried escaping disguised as an elderly man.

Officers had surrounded a house in South Yarmouth, Massachusetts in search of 31-year-old Shaun "Shizz" Miller.

But when they called out his name, an "elderly man" was spotted emerging from the property.

But officers soon realised the elderly individual was in fact an elaborately disguised Miller.

Miller had been on the run from police since relation in relation to the alleged trafficking of heroin.

When they searched his property, officers found two loaded weapons hidden in a laundry basket and £23,000 in cash.
