Australian teen on the run asks news station to use better photo

Can you at least use a better picture? 

An Australian teen on the run from police wasn’t pleased when she saw a local news station using an unflattering photo of her on social media.

Amy Sharp, 18, escaped from Surry Hills Corrective Services Cell Complex in Sydney, Australia, on August. 19, 7 News reported.

On Aug. 24, the news station posted two photos of Sharp on Facebook with details about her escape.

The teen saw the Facebook post, and wasn't pleased with the unflattering picture the station used.  

“Can you use this photo, please and thank you,” Sharp wrote in the comment section beneath the post. 

Sharp’s cheeky request got over 61,000 likes on Facebook. 

But Sharp’s freedom was short lived.

According to the news station, she was arrested on August 27 and is expected to face charges.
