Daily Mail reports:
A man in the back of a Florida police car allegedly tried to chew off his own fingerprints after being arrested in a car reported stolen.
Kenzo Roberts, 20, was taken into custody on a highway outside of Fort Myers after he was pulled over in a 2015 Mercedes.
Video footage from inside the Lee County Sheriff's Office car show the young man chewing at the tips of his fingers and rubbing them vigorously against the backseat cage.
He was seen on camera swallowing bits of skin as he looks around to make sure he wasn't being watched.
However, the ploy wasn't successful as the fingerprint scanner was able to identify him immediately. Roberts had two felony warrants outstanding for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Roberts has been charged with three counts of possession of a counterfeit credit card, grand theft auto, possession of a concealed firearm, possession of similitude of a driver's license, driving while license suspended, and false identification given to law enforcement.
U.S. Border Patrol was contacted, which discovered that Roberts was also in the U.S. illegally.
