While they acknowledge that posting Star Wars: The Force Awakens spoilers the week of release isn't actually a crime, the official Facebook page for the Philadelphia Police Department says it probably should be.
They also staged a photo shoot wherein they took a couple of Stormtroopers into custody, a little reminiscent of Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice filmmaker Zack Snyder's "stolen Batmobile" joke.
You can check out their post below.
