The video shows him mimicking the pose, also with crates of beer, but in a branch of the New Yorkers Food Market, a grocery store in Manhattan.

He wrote on Twitter: "Officers, I swear it wasn't me. As you can see, I was in New York. To the hardworking Blackpool Police, good luck with the investigation."

According to the BBC, the man in the security footage picture is suspected of stealing a jacket, a wallet, and a cell phone from an all-you-can-eat buffet in Blackpool, England.

The image of the man shows him at a different time, and he isn't necessarily doing anything illegal in the image.

Blackpool Police had already exonerated Schwimmer before his post. On Tuesday, the police force's account had written: "We have investigated this matter thoroughly and have confirmed that David Schwimmer was in America on this date. We're so sorry it has to be this way."

Here's the suspect side by side with the "Friends" actor:
