An arrest has been made in the case of a man who was caught on camera stealing beer, and whose uncanny resemblance to Friends' actor David Schwimmer made him go viral.

Lancashire Police said on Tuesday that a 36-year-old man had been arrested in London on suspicion of theft. "Thank you for the support, especially @DavidSchwimmer!" the force tweeted.

The Blackpool Police initially posted a CCTV image of the thief leaving a restaurant with a crate of what looked like stolen beer cans. Fans of the hit American sitcom, however, pointed out that the suspect and Schwimmer's character Ross Geller looked incredibly alike.
