Everything we know about the Daniel Khalife lookalike everyone’s thirsting over on Twitter

Yesterday, news of a male train passenger being handcuffed by police after being mistakenly identified as recently escaped fugitive Daniel Khalife circulated online. The now viral video with over two million shows, shows officers speaking to the handcuffed man, who looks similar to the escaped 21-year-old, but it’s gone viral for more reasons than you’d think.

Officers swooped on the man at Banbury station in Oxfordshire, a fair distance away from the prison break in London. They then obviously realised he was not the fugitive soldier who escaped HMP Wandsworth strapped to the underneath of a delivery van disguised as a chef, but was instead a Daniel Khalife lookalike.

Since then, the poor lad has found the funny side and has commented on the ordeal, and the internet has gone wild. Not only because of this being possibly one of the most unfortunate things to happen on your regular Thursday – but also because he’s pretty good looking too.

The incident, caught on camera by a member of the public, shows police surrounding the man after he was mistaken for the escapee by another passenger, who alerted the police. The unfortunate Daniel Khalife lookalike, Horatio, has since created an account on X (formally named Twitter) explaining the situation and sharing his side of the story. What’s the crime, officers, other than him having a dangerously sharp jawline?

So, what exactly do we know about this man?

Horatio claims the only thing he is actually guilty of is flirting with the officers who were present.

that's the only thing I'm guilty of tbh 👀

If Horatio was the least bit traumatised by his arrest and subsequent de-arrest, I’m sure a quick swipe through his X direct messages is enough to brighten his mood. He also liked a tweet about starting an only fans so he’s clearly loving the spotlight. Watch this space.

We will update this article with information on Horatio as we have it.
