A FUGITIVE who reckons he's a dead ringer for a Hollywood A-Lister has been taunting police while he's on the run.
Devon Bentley, 19, is being hunted by cops for suspected burglary offences and could soon be thrown back behind bars.
But an attempt to use social media to find Bentley has left Brits in stitches as the 19-year-old has claimed he's a Jim Carrey lookalike.
Mocking police on a Facebook post plastered with his face, the fugitive wrote: "Is there a reward for his whereabouts?
"I'm a B-Tech Jim Kerry bro."

There's just one striking resemblance between the crim and celeb - Bentley's straight, short fringe is similar to that of the star in the 1994 classic Dumb and Dumber.
However, it was that feature that saw the Stoke-on-Trent teen mocked relentlessly.
One person wrote: "Should be searching for whoever cut his hair, it’s a crime in itself."
Another quipped "some people think they're a cut above the law", while one other said: "He must get tired of living on the fringe of society."
While Bentley's claims of fame may not be that convincing, there's other fugitives who have actually looked like celebrities.
