Sometimes when you're on the run from the law, you still need to feel like you're still connected to your would-be captors on social media.

That's pretty much the only way to explain why Levi Charles Reardon would add his Like to a picture of his "wanted" mugshot on a Seattle-area police Facebook page — an act that led to his arrest.

Great Falls/Cascade County Crimestoppers posted Reardon's mugshot on April 3, noting that he was wanted for forgery.

The Facebook group soon noticed that Reardon had Liked the mugshot photo from his own account.

Crimestoppers took a screenshot of the social media gaffe before Reardon got to redact the Like. The screenshot was then posted to Facebook.

Reardon was arrested on April 24. His arraignment is scheduled for May 7.

Just goes to show: If you're wanted for arrest, you have bigger things to worry about than Facebook statuses.
