Keep the day job, lads. Granted, members of the police force have more to be worrying about than their artwork, but whoever's job it was to conjure up this rudimentary e-fit of a wanted man is feeling the heat today. Cheshire police released the computer-generated image in the hunt for a man wanted for questioning after being spotted with a knife in a pub in Macclesfield, according to Manchester Evening News. The good news is - the picture has been shared. A Lot. The bad news? People are seriously questioning how much money is left in constabulary budgets. Facebook-user Dominic Gibbs wrote: "There's budget cuts, and then there's using snapchat to take a picture of your mate and scribbling on his face. This is Cameron's fault. Another user wrote: "When you're in charge of a criminal investigation but only have access to Microsoft Paint." Tor Bullock questioned: "Is this a joke? Do we need to sort some kind of collection? I'm sure there's a course people can go on," while Anna Gough wrote: "Looks like the image was made on someone's PC using Paint."

All very well people mocking that Cheshire police e-fit but some of us have facial hair that grows like that. pic.twitter.com/GTCxsEtlpX

In all seriousness though, the man is described as mid 30s, white, with short black hair and a dark beard. He entered The Park Tavern in Macclesfield on January 12 and sat alone, with AA batteries in a plastic case around his waist.
