A South Carolina man with a gun tattooed on his face was busted for allegedly possessing a firearm.

Michael Vines, who is federally prohibited from possessing a gun, was spotted throwing a loaded .38-caliber revolver into the grass after a car crash, the Greenville Police Department said on its Facebook page on June 19.

Firefighters saw Vines dump the weapon and alerted cops, who then recovered the gun, police said.

Vines was charged with driving under a suspended license, driving too fast for conditions and unlawful carrying of a firearm.
