Australian fugitive uses Facebook to ask police for new mugshot

An Australian man on the run after skipping bail has made contact with his home state's police force - to ask them for a better mugshot on their 'wanted' posters.

Daniel Damon, 25, is wanted in relation to unspecified 'traffic and drug matters' Following the publication of the police warrant on Facebook, he took to the social network to complain about the 'horrible' photo used by Victoria Police in their public appeal for information. We can't work out if this is a super-intelligent Catch Me if You Can-style operation from Damon, or whether he was just bored and wanted to have a laugh. Police will be hoping he 'gets everything organised' sooner rather than later. It turns out this isn't Damon's only recent police anecdote, and he was certainly able to laugh off his previous clash with law enforcement.
