Police’s Computer-Generated Image Is Giving People Real Pete Buttigieg Vibes
Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg is the latest public figure whose (potential) lookalike is being sought by police in England.
Investigators in the southeast town of Tunbridge Wells on Monday issued a computer-generated image “of a man they would like to identify in connection with a burglary,” per a post on X, formerly Twitter.

“A 90-year-old homeowner heard the intruder upstairs after returning to the house from her front garden,” police said in a statement. “When confronted, it is alleged the man claimed he was a police officer before leaving the property empty-handed.”
Kent Police shared the picture on X and commenters immediately suggested it looked like Buttigieg:

I’ll help y’all: this man is named Pete Buttigieg. He’s the secretary of transportation here in the United States.

They trapped Pete Buttigieg in a PS1 game and he's broken free. Tortured by the humanity he can never regain, he is now roaming the streets, lashing out at a society he can never reenter. https://t.co/FOVUxvdYpS

Lookalikes of “Friends” star David Schwimmer and British soccer legend David Beckham have both been the subjects of previous police appeals that have gone viral. Buttigieg has not commented on the photo.
