(Daily Mail) Georgia police are on the hunt for a thief who’s the spitting image of actor Bradley Cooper.
Police said the suspect, who bears a striking resemblance to a heavier Cooper, was caught on camera stealing a rotary laser from a Home Depot in McDonough on July 23.
As Henry County Police put out a notice for help in tracking down the thief, many were quick to point out the suspect was a dead ringer for the Oscar-nominated actor.
Others used the dopplegangers appearance to make jokes that Cooper was method acting or struggling to make ends meet as the cops’ post received nearly 500 comments on Facebook over the last week.
‘You know it’s hard times when Braddley is having to steal,’ Facebook user Brooke Adams wrote.

While many took the chance to joke to police that Cooper was the suspect they’re looking for, others couldn’t help but to make puns about the A Star Is Born actor.
‘Bradley Cooper stealing? He’s really far from the shallow now,’ wrote Facebook user Adam Veatch.
Jeremy Gonzalez, another Facebook user, wrote: ‘Must be hard…keepin it so hardcore.’
Fellow Facebook user Mary Kethyrn Jenkins chimed in to suggest that the suspect was merely Cooper staying in character for his next project.
‘Bradley Cooper really put [it] on for this role,’ Jenkins wrote.
Tom Sanford, another Facebook user, quipped: ‘Bradley Cooper pulled a Wynona Ryder,’ referencing the Stranger Things actor’s brush with law in 2001 over shoplifting charges.
