PRATTVILLE, Alabama -- An Autauga County man was apprehended early Wednesday after taunting authorities on his Facebook page.
Marconi "Cornbread" Tarantino, 24, posted, in part: "Tauga county mounty hope u wearing them Nikes 2Day!!! ;) cuz y'all gone have to catch these boots."
Warrants were issued for Tarantino's arrest when he failed to show up for his sentencing on burglary and theft of property charges,
Tipped off by area residents to Tarantino's Facebook rants, the Autauga County Sheriff's Office caught up with Tarantino at his home on County Road 57 using a Alabama State Trooper helicopter and Alabama Department of Corrections dog team.
"He heard the chopper and bolted out the back door," Sheriff Herbie Johnson told the Advertiser. "We put the dogs on him, he ran 40, 50 yards and tried to hide. The dogs went right to him. He was taken into custody without further incident."
Tarantino is currently being held without bond.
