It’s been an interesting weekend for academy award winner Tom Hanks. He’s already touched our hearts as a comedic as well as dramatic actor but apparently he’s now on the side of the law and is taking no prisoners. Many enjoyed Hanks and his appearance on Saturday Night Live over the weekend as Hanks agreed to be SNL host Dwayne Johnson’s running mate in the 2020 election for President of the United States.
In a lesser known story Hanks has taken on an even more important role in real-life: parking ticket narc. According to the Huffington Post:

The “Forrest Gump” actor on Saturday ratted out an apparent scofflaw in New York City by tweeting a picture of a car with several tickets crammed onto the windshield. Hollywood script writers should take note of his to-the-point message. NYPD spokesman J. Peter Donald responded.
Can you tell us where the car is parked? Thanks for the flag @tomhanks

Cops located the car on the Upper East Side’s East 79th Street and Park Avenue, and discovered that the tickets had been paid.

“We checked the license plate and there are no outstanding summonses,” a police source told the New York Daily News. “He probably pays them online but leaves them on his windshield.” This is a true New Yorker and a great move if you ask me. Hanks should follow suit.
