Authorities think he’s heading to Tampa. We don’t know much about him but his name is Anthony Eugene Ward. He’s 48 years old. ABC Action News reports that an escaped prisoner from Suwanee County Jail might still be wearing an all-brown uniform with brown boots.

Tampa Police say he broke out of the jail this morning in Live Oak, Florida which is between Jacksonville and Tallahassee. They think think he might be heading our way. Here’s a photo of the escaped inmate. They ask if you see him to call 911 immediately. [Source: ABC Action News]

UPDATE: Tampa Police says Ward has been found and apprehended. Hopefully we’ll get an updated mugshot because check out these photos shared to social media by the Suwannee County Sheriff’s Office.
