The warrant against him was issued after Damon failed to answer bail for drug and traffic matters, police said.
A vanity-conscious fugitive in Australia has got in touch with police and asked them to put out a better mugshot of him in their wanted poster.
Victoria Police shared the mugshot of Daniel Damon from Epsom, Victoria, on their official Facebook page in the hope he would be recognised by one of their 288,000 followers.
Within one hour, they had gone one step better, with the fugitive himself commenting on the post: "Can you use a better photo tho. This is a horrible mugshot."
The police was smart in their reply, asking Damon to "visit your nearest police station and we'll arrange for a new photo to be taken".
The warrant against him was issued after Damon failed to answer bail for drug and traffic matters, police said.
Within hours of the post going live, the man police describe as having "numerous body tattoos" indicated he would soon present himself.
"Yea I plan on it once I get a few things in order..just gotta organise myself a lawyer and get everything organised (sic)," Damon wrote on the police post.
On his own Facebook page, Damon taunted police with a message that suggested he would stay on the run. "I need to get a new mug shot," the 23-year-old wrote.
The wily police media team promptly replied with a quip of their own: "Come see us and will arrange at no cost."
Damon's friends on Facebook found his exchange with the police to be humorous, with one commenting that he "couldn't stop laughing" with others saying his actions were "arrogant".
