Apparently, officials in Phoenix, Arizona ended up discovering the bloody truth after being nice to one man they saw eating.
Two officers paid for a man’s meal at IHOP, which somehow led to an arrest. According to the Daily Mail,
Sgt. Tommy Thompson said on Friday the officers went to The International House of Pancakes early on Wednesday morning where a man named Mykel Cantrel Cooper, 23, said he had no money to pay for his meal.
The officers concluded the man had some type of mental health issue, so they paid for his meal and tip and took him to a behavioral health facility rather than take him to jail, Thompson said.
The site continues:
At the facility at short time later, the man told staff there he’d done ‘something bad to his roommate’, Thompson said.
Police were contacted and went to his apartment, where they found the body of 29-year-old Steven Horkovy, who apparently had been killed Tuesday, Thompson said.
Detectives then proceeded to arrest Mykel as a suspect for first degree murder. Cooper remains in jail on a $1 million bond. We will keep you updated with the latest.
