Emmerdale resident Billy Fletcher (Jay Kontzle) was recruited by Max (Jordan Reece) to take part in a heist in order to secure the safety of his brother Ellis Chapman (Asan N'Jie).
Max and his friends created a roadblock so they could hold up a security van and steal money but their plan went incredibly wrong.
Armed police turned up at the scene and for a moment it looked like Billy was in big trouble as they surrounded him.
But as he knelt on the ground with his hands behind him, it was revealed he had actually tipped off the police and would not be charged.
While fans were grateful Billy wasn’t in more trouble, many slammed how slowly the police arrived on the scene given that they already had all of the details ahead of time.
“These police are rubbish how did they only catch one?” one viewer shared.
Another added: “The soap police are great at their jobs as usual… the criminals run and they don’t have a taser/make any attempt to stop them.”
