The Child From ‘Jaws’ Is Now Martha’s Winery’s Chief of Police

From a thorn in Chief Brody’s facet to an actual life Chief Brody.

The immortal basic Jaws was set on the fictional New England island of Amity, however the film was largely filmed on the actual New England island of Martha’s Winery. And this week, the actual Martha’s Winery, chosen a brand new chief of police: Jonathan Searle. And in a coincidence so stunning it appears like one thing out of a film, Jonathan Searle appeared in Steven Spielberg’s Jaws as one of many youngsters making life depressing for Chief Brody, once they disguise themselves as a shark and trigger havoc on the seashores of Amity.

If it’s been some time, right here is the scene in query:

In accordance with The Each day Jaws, Searle has lived on Martha’s Winery his entire life and has served within the native police Edgartown Police Division since 1986. Improbably, Searle additionally as soon as had a hand in arresting a person who tried to tug a variation on the identical prank he had fictionally pulled in Jaws, stopping somebody who “who was going spherical falsely making an attempt to trigger panic on the seashore by telling folks that he had seen a pair of nice white sharks from a ship he hadn’t even been on.” Really, it takes one to know one.

Searle informed the native Winery Gazette “I’m clearly elated and and I’m humbled and honored to have been provided the place. It’s one thing I’ve been working towards my entire profession.”

That is all very thrilling. But when Haley Joel Osment broadcasts he’s going to switch all his physique elements with cybernetic enhancements and grow to be a real-life synthetic intelligence, that’s the place I draw the road.
