Pugh, 45, was captured on Tuesday in Florida after a tip-off
from an unidentified source. The story went viral after he sent police
selfie with the caption: "Here is a better
photo that one is terrible."
The Escambia County Sheriff's Office released Pugh's photos on its
Facebook page thanking local police in Florida and credited the
arrest to "the power of social media"
"How’s
this photo Donald Pugh? On January 6th, theLima Police Department in
Ohio, posted a photo of Donald “Chip” Pugh on social media as a
wanted person for Failure to Appear. He responded by sending the Lima
Police a selfie with the caption, “here is a better photo that one is
terrible.”
Around 11:00 Tuesday morning (1/12/16) the Escambia County
Sheriff’s Office arrested Pugh in Century, Fl. thanks to a tip. Maybe
that selfie helped people identify you better? #thanksfortheselfie #LESM"
