The original photos received with disapproval from Mr. Pugh:

Just cause you’re on the run, doesn’t mean you stop caring about the looks–good and bad.

“This photo was sent to us by Mr Pugh himself,” Lima Police Department wrote in a post.

“Man, they just did me wrong,” Mr Pugh disclosed while on an Ohio radio station about why he sent the selfie in the first place.

“They put a picture out that made me look like I was a Thundercat… or James Brown on the run. I can’t do that.

Fans of this madness even banded together to pitch their efforts together, and start up a Facebook page for Pugh.
