This jokester — 29-year-old Michael Harp — asked for permission to make a call on his cell phone and then used it to order five pizzas from Domino’s, WKYT [reports](http://www.wkyt.com/home/headlines/Pizza-prank-lands-Corbin-theft-suspect-in-more-trouble-267387841.html "undefined"). The pies arrived under the name of Officer Wilson, who had originally arrested Harp. They tracked the call to Harp pretty easily since, you know, he’d used his own cell phone. Harp, however, denied the whole thing. “I’m wrongfully accused on this here,” he told WKYT. “They’ve charged me with two felonies over this pizza deal because I had my phone inside the holding cell. There was about 10 people who probably used the phone, so it’s hard to say. Like I said, I never heard anyone say a word about Domino’s pizzas. Any of it.” Still, he’s now facing additional charges including theft of identity, theft by deception and impersonating a police officer.
