The Berkeley County Sheriff's Office in South Carolina is thanking the public after tips generated by a humorous Facebook post led to the arrest of a wanted man.
"Thanks to the many tips we received on Facebook, Berkeley County deputies were able to apprehend 30-year-old Shawn Anderson Hagan," the department wrote in a follow-up post. "Deputies were searching for Hagan after he fled yesterday. Today, Hagan fled from deputies again — but this time he was caught."
Hagan will be facing charges for the initial fleeing as well as drug charges.
In the initial post, the department wrote: "Does anyone know Shawn Hagan? (Not asking for a friend) We would really like to return his phone. Next time, secure all valuables before running."
The post was viewed more than 2,600 times and had 350 Comments and 2,656 Shares.
