A Florida man with a very wide neck—whose viral mugshots made him an Instagram sensation—has been arrested for the third time.

Charles Dion McDowell, 31, is back behind bars after authorities revoked his bond from an Escambia County arrest last year, the Pensacola News Journal reported. That arrest took place in July 2018. Deputies detained him on charges of fleeing and eluding police, as well as various drug offenses after officers found him allegedly in possession of a fanny pack containing methamphetamine and cocaine.
