Forget outstanding warrants, this guy has an outstanding appetite.

The suspect in an Arizona car chase took an unexpected detour on Wednesday, stopping at the drive-thru of an In-N-Out Burger as he attempted to elude authorities.

Deputies in Phoenix attempted to arrest 35-year-old Joshua Adkins, who had an outstanding warrant, AZ Central reports.

Police, hungry for justice, say they began tracking Adkins with a helicopter after he failed to comply with authorities.

Unfortunately for Adkins, the food was not fast enough. Helicopter footage shows Adkins appear to order a meal, only to drive away empty handed.  

Police eventually arrested Adkins on suspicion of unlawful flight from law enforcement, aggravated assault-domestic violence and unlawful imprisonment, according to Fox 10 Phoenix.
