Jermell Jones was working at the kids’ entertainment center in Tallahassee Wednesday when police stormed the joint during a birthday party and placed him in handcuffs, according to TMZ.
Jones was captured on camera wearing the cartoon rodent’s signature purple “C” sweatshirt and a glum facial expression, as his giant mouse head sat on top of a nearby cop car, during the arrest, according to the outlet.
The furry fraudster reportedly tried a similar Mickey Mouse operation and was busted for the same credit card crime six months ago, the outlet reported.
Jones was charged with credit card theft, criminal use of personal identification info and fraudulent use of a credit card. He was booked and released Thursday morning on $1,000 bond.

Some observers slammed cops for hauling Jones away in the mouse costume as kids watched.
“Ok, Tallahassee Police Department, y’all couldn’t let this man change out of his Chuck E. Cheese costume before arresting him in front of those kids?” one man wrote on Facebook Thursday.
