CORBIN, Ky. (KGO) -- Kentucky police officers got an unexpected delivery to their station that was traced back to an inmate recently arrested for shoplifting.



Five pizzas were delivered to their police department under the officer's name who arrested 29-year-old Michael Harp on Tuesday afternoon.



Harp was in a jail cell at the time, in trouble for shoplifting and public intoxication. He's now facing more charges including theft by deception, theft of identity and impersonating a police officer.



"I'm wrongfully accused on this here. They've charged me with two felonies over this pizza deal because I had my phone inside the holding cell. I mean it's a joke, truthfully. Pizzas, come on," Harp said.



Harp continues to claim his innocence, saying it could have been any of the 10 other inmates he allowed to use his phone.
