A wanted man in Omaha, Neb. was arrested after posting an Ice Bucket Challenge video on Facebook, Friday.


Jesean Morris, 20, was on a wanted list for a parole violation. He was convicted in 2010 for attempted assault and was released on parole this March.

A tipster saw the video and identified the house where Morris shot the video. After he informed the police of the suspect's whereabouts, Morris was arrested.

During the arrest, Morris reportedly gave the police false information, and spit on one officer's face.

He was booked on the warrant as well as suspicion of criminal impersonation, resisting arrest and assaulting an officer.

The Ice Bucket Challenge is a fundraising activity to find a cure for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), or Lou Gehrig's disease.
