Dumb Criminals: Guy responds to his own Wanted photo on sheriff's Facebook page - arrested

Social media giveth, and social media taketh away, as the Butler County Sheriff's Office proved.

Andrew Dale Marcum, 21, of Lemon Township, achieved local internet celebrity Monday when he publicly defended himself against allegations from the Butler County Sheriff's Office in a Monday Facebook post.

However, tipsters learned of Marcum because of that defense, and they helped lead police to him less than 24 hours later.

The sheriff's office credited the anonymous tipsters for information leading to Marcum's Tuesday arrest, according to a Twitter post from the department.
