Cops arrest bank robber and lose evidence in the process ......

Cops responding to a call of a bank robbery caught the alleged robber making his escape. In a police video that captured the officers dragging the suspect back to their squad car and spreading him out on the trunk for a detailed search, one of the officers is seen placing the demand note used at the bank by the robber on the car, near the suspect's face.

You guessed it, the enterprising suspect snared the note with his mouth and calmly ate it as the cops continued their thorough search of the suspect and his clothing. They couldn't find the note. (See video of arrest below)
