HAMILTON, Ohio -- A man who commented on his wanted photo on the Butler County Sheriff's Office Facebook page is in custody after turning himself in on Tuesday.

Several hours after he was featured on the Facebook page, Marcum commented on the sheriff’s office post:

The sheriff's office then responded to Marcum's comment:

“If you could stop by the Sheriff’s Office, that’d be great." - Butler County Sheriff’s Office


On Tuesday, the sheriff's office posted an update:

"Andrew Dale Marcum will be off Facebook temporarily, because there is no social media access in the Butler County Jail. He's turned himself in. Thanks to our Facebook and Twitter friends for helping turn up the heat." - Butler County Sheriff’s Office
