Man arrested after allegedly saying having warrants is like ‘adult hide-and-seek’ on social media

MART, Texas (KWTX/Gray News) - A Texas man who joked on Facebook that “having warrants is basically the adult version of hide-and-seek” was arrested within a week, according to authorities.

The Mart Police Department, along with members of the Groesbeck Police Department’s Joint Criminal Apprehension Team (JCAT) and the McLennan County Sheriff’s Office, including the K-9 Unit, served a narcotics search warrant in the 200 block of South Smyth Street in Mart.

While officers were on scene, they discovered that some people had outstanding felony warrants unrelated to the drug case.

According to police, one of those suspects, identified as Fritz Eugene Case, had recently posted on Facebook saying, “Having warrants is basically the adult version of hide-and-seek.”

Officials said they tracked down and arrested Case within a week of that post.

He was taken into custody on two felony warrants and booked into the McLennan County Jail.
