A Tennessee man was taken into custody after he publicly challenged deputies on social media to “come find him,” according to the Shelby County Sheriff’s Office.

Devon Bart, 25, was arrested on Friday following a social media post where he uploaded pictures of himself and made statements taunting law enforcement, as reported by Fox News.
