A cheeky on-the-run stalking suspect ‘with hair like Sideshow Bob’ has moaned to police over the mugshot they have used of him after being ruthlessly ridiculed online for his messy barnet.
Bailey Gover is being hunted by Greater Manchester Police over ‘for stalking… and malicious communications offences’.
And on Wednesday, officers released a mugshot of him on Facebook – which sparked a social media storm with people mercilessly mocking him over his messy hair.
Now audacious Gover – who turned 20 today – has pestered police begging them to swap his photo after people compared his out-of-control mop to an alpaca, a sheep and famed Simpsons clown Sideshow Bob, played by Fraser star, Kelsey Grammer.

Posting on the police ‘wanted’ appeal on Facebook, Gover from Ashton-under-Lyne, Greater Manchester, wrote: ‘Use have better pictures of me – no need to do me like that.’
In another mocking post, the 20-year-old added: ‘Use could of put up a better picture of me. WTF is this?’
Gover’s posts sparked ridicule with Facebook users comparing him to various animals and shamed music mogul Phil Spector.
Paul Trenbath said: ‘I wondered where that birds nest in our tree had gone now I know he’s even robbed that.’
Chris Boaler added: ‘Look behind the hedges, looks like he’s been dragged through one backwards!’
