A thief in Florida was caught disguising himself as a woman in a hilarious ‘woman’s make-up’ to evade cops after an alleged boat theft.
How the Incident Unfolds
A stolen boat located at the Old Caloosa Lodge in Lakeport was recovered by the help of authorities.
The cops were combing the area in search for the suspect when they stumbled upon a peculiar scene.
How He Was Found Out
Joshua Kolotka, 33, was spotted leaving a house dressed as woman while deputies were investigating a theft in Lakeport last Wednesday, according to the Glade County Sheriff’s Office.
He was seen sporting a white cardigan on top of a blue patterned midi dress, sunglasses, and a hilarious blonde short wig in a photo shared by the sheriff’s office.
‘They observed Joshua Kolotka exiting a residence dressed as a woman in an attempt to disguise himself,’ the sheriff’s office wrote in a release.

On Thursday, officers released a photo featuring Kolotka in a blonde wig, alongside a mugshot revealing him with a buzz cut, devoid of any disguise.
