I hope he apologizes and then the police let's him free. He was being annoying but going to jail just because TWO HUNDRED prank calls is a bit uhhh hard. Also I feel like this is somewhat cute.

AWESOME.

Never even thought of that myself. He needs an American counterpart.

*dials police*

*blabbers on in best Yasuo Yamada impression*

*small-town Michigan police = thoroughly confused*

Unlike the real Lupin III he got caught and is now paying his debt to society. Laughing

My guess is he was unemployed and had nothing better to do with his time.

I used to live in Onojo!
Now I'm wondering if I ever passed this fellow in the street or the supermarket. Laughing

And just wanted to bash the police, using the one corny pop reference he symbolized with it.

If you're going to do Lupin prank calls, do them right: Wisecracks are as a necessity as Yasuo Yamada imitations.
Anyone who ignores either opportunity is just being a jerk about it.
