We all have those pictures we regret, be it an unfortunate yearbook photo or a cringe-worthy candid posted on Facebook. And apparently even criminals can be sensitive about their looks, as fugitive Donald Pugh has proven.

New York Post reports that the Ohio man, on the run for skipping an appearance at court for a drunk driving charge, sent the Lima Police Department a selfie to replace his not-so-flattering mugshot with something a little more photogenic, along with a text saying "Here is a better photo that one is terrible."

Pugh was arrested Tuesday after sending the mugshot, in Century, Fla.
