There's nothing like a criminal going down because he opted for carryout instead of delivery.

A guy named Mickey Stines is the sheriff of Letcher County, Kentucky.  And he went to a pizza place over the weekend to grab some pizzas for an archery tournament.

And while he was at the restaurant, another guy walked in to pick up pizzas . . . and Mickey recognized him as a WANTED FUGITIVE.

So Mickey called in another cop, and they arrested the guy on two outstanding warrants.  The guy's name wasn't released.

They also found two guns, ammo, bolt cutters, and drugs in the guy's trunk, so he was hit with several extra charges too.
