Police in Massachusetts asked a simple favor of residents who may be planning a crime over the weekend: please wait until the heat wave is over to conduct your criminal activity.

Around 93 million people were under excessive heat warnings and advisories over the weekend, including several states in the Northeast. In Massachusetts, the heat index was slated to reach as high as 112 degrees in some places, according to ABC Boston affiliate WCVB.

"Due to the extreme heat, we are asking anyone thinking of doing criminal activity to hold off until Monday," the Braintree Police Department posted to Facebook."It is straight up hot as soccer balls out there. Conducting criminal activity, in this extreme heat is next level henchmen status, and also very dangerous."

The Malden Police Department also took a stand against venturing outside in the sweltering heat, stating that all criminal activity has been put on hold"until further notice."

Yeah I'm sure they'll listen.

Well, they asked nicely so... No tea party this week.

What a shame to plead mercy from police office ! Never kneel down at anytime to criminal forces at any circumstances at any costs !

That’s the wrong thing to say...their out rn

Hold off on crime period

africaupdates 🤔

More benefits of a multicultural society. Police know there’s going to be crime, just ask criminals to not make them work in the heat. 😆

Too hot to crime and too hot to police. Stay cool and stay safe.

Without snitches police would never solve a crime

Don’t shoot me until it is 72 degrees, WTF😂‼️

Oh..... Well since they asked why not?

😂😂😂

Sounds reasonable. How the hell did that happen...?

I’m sorry, but why would they want criminals to stay safe? Let them go out in the heat and hopefully they’ll get heat stroke and they’ll learn. I understand it puts the police in danger but they can certainly stay hydrated.

kcpolice did they copy your tweet or did you copy them🤨

Ahhh the massachusetts thought process. 😂😂😂

africaupdates Wow! City of Malden cops have a very good working relationship with criminals. Strange though.

I think I saw a tweet lole this in the winter time as well. Lol

that’s the real phase of “can’t take the heat”

In that case may it continue till December.

And also “RSVP...I got the memo

Optics play a major role in the psyche from the psychological-sociological construct of racism.

Lol, criminals dont give a hoot.

Just be considerate

That and please leave a recent picture of yourself at the scene of the crime.

Hope that message reached POTUS

You think a little thing like Heat is going to stop a person.. if a blizzard didn’t stop them ..

😂 This is funny coming from the law enforcement community, how about don't commit crimes all the times?

Ummm, Mass. police might wanna rethink the wording on that😳

Nice to see cops (or their social media person) with a sense of humor. The PO-PO sign-off was very unexpected.

What? Just like suspending a 5K, in a heatwave? Suspend robbery, assault, battery, murder, etc. 🤦‍♀️ Wait for a cooler day, then commence?

Keep your neighbor alive until then?

Stupid remark

'Because it's too hot to be chasin' mf-ers and we'll just shoot ya instead.'

And the police thinks Democrats will follow the law? Haha

WTF?
