Police in Illinois are looking for a man who looks suspiciously like the protagonist of "Breaking Bad," Walter White – and who is wanted for violation of probation related to possession of methamphetamine, according to a local report.
The Galesburg Police Department in Illinois regularly posts photos of wanted people on its Facebook page, but the Sept. 3 message, which features 50-year-old Todd Barrick Jr, has garnered attention. Barrick's photo ID shows him sports glasses and a goatee, similar to the character played by Bryan Cranston in the AMC series. Barrick is also the same age as the character of Walter White at the beginning of the series.

"Breaking Bad" lasted five seasons between 2008 and 2013. The broadcast told the story of White, a high school chemistry professor diagnosed with lung cancer and who turned to the making of methamphetamine to ensure the financial security of his family after his death.
"Heisenberg lives!" A Facebook user commented under the police station's post, referring to an alias used by White in the show.

It was not known immediately if Barrick was currently in custody.
