The post quickly racked up 2,700 shares and more than 100 comments from bemused followers.
Sheriff’s officials told Cox Media the post was removed from Facebook due to the overwhelming amount of comments.
"Don't you have a better pic? This could be anybody," one commenter quipped.
"Now they need to put a 'be on the lookout' for a bad tattoo artist," wrote another.
Ward has been located and is in police custody.
