(PUEBLO, Colo.) — The Pueblo County Sheriff’s Office conducted a search for an inmate trustee on Thursday, April 24, after he escaped the Pueblo County Jail while working.

At around 8:20 p.m. on Thursday, 26-year-old Lucas Brown was working in the kitchen at the jail, and was with other kitchen trustees throwing out trash when he ‘suddenly ran away.’ Detention deputies supervising the trustees reported seeing Brown run west on 9th Street. A deputy ran after Brown but lost sight of him, and other deputies secured the remaining trustees in the jail and called the communications center to report the escape.
