This is the moment a man enjoying a night stroll during the COVID-19 curfew hides behind a cardboard box every time a car passes in case it is the cops.
The incident was filmed in the northern Serbian capital Belgrade during curfew hours to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
In the footage, a man is seen crouched behind a cardboard box before springing up when the coast is clear and continuing with his night stroll.
When several cars pass, the man props up the box and crouches down behind it until they’re gone.
He then pops up again and continues his walk.
