You're walking along one day, tapping on your phone when suddenly you see a man in green clothes with short hair and a scar on his face running your way at great speed.

He almost barrels into you and has to stop himself from colliding, he panics once he realizes he's slowed down and leaps into the bushes behind you. He seems terrified.

Moments later 2 cops jog by looking around as they go. One turns to you and says "Hey! Have you seen a really ugly guy in green with a scar and short hair go by?"

You can see the guy in the bushes behind them, sweating profusely and looking like he is about to shit himself.

How do you react?
What do you do?

Well I spoke to a cop for the 1st time ever yesterday because I parked my car in a place that wasn't proper while waiting for someone. I wasn't able to think all that well during the conversation. I started feeling guilty the moment she went up to the window. My thoughts started racing like crazy trying to come up with an excuse. Well the convo only lasted about 10seconds i just told her i was waiting on someone and wouldnt stay long and she said something along the lines of OK and left.my anxiety was to high to comprehend it properly. but after this experience i realized that i won't be able to talk my way out of anything to the cops.

So id probably snitch tbh. Not that I want to but I just dont feel confident in lying to the cops with a straight face. I'm gonna need more practice for sure but i don't have any cop friends to practice with and even if I did they prob won't be willing to train me to be a good liar.

I didn't read that but it's not snitching if you're not criminally involved with the criminal

Uhh....wow, talk about a hypothetical that lacks information required to make a sound judgement.

Is the man hiding in the bushes a target of police brutality, or an actual rapist evading capture... or is it a crazy person about to harm themselves or someone else, and since we lack the proper resources and personnel to effectively deal with such individuals as a society, the police officer would at least be the most efficient way to get this person out of harms way and into the state medical facility they may need to be in to prevent harm?

Ask the cops:

"What happened? Who is it? What did he do?"

this. if the cop doesn't share, then i don't share. mutually beneficial.
also if he's honest and it doesn't seem worth it, then i don't say anything.
