A Sarasota, Florida man recently got in trouble with police after pulling a prank.

43-year old Brian Slocum says he was recently introduced to the Snapchat mobile app and wanted to pull a humorous prank. Slocum drove to a pawn shop and asked how much he could get for his “barley used,” seven-month-old son – all the while filming everything for the app.
The pawn shop owner was not amused and Slocum left… without ever telling him that it was a joke!
Dozens of cops showed up at Slocum’s house, but ultimately decided not to charge him after he proved that it was a prank. In an evening news cast, Brian said his son is the most important thing in his life.
