 Jason Dewayne Plummer |
The Dade County Sheriff's office said 31-year-old Jason Dewayne Plummer was arrested and brought to the Dade County Jail. Before the booking process was completed, Plummer was able to escape by climbing through a ceiling vent when an officer stepped out of the room for a few minutes.
A short time later, he was able to make his way to the Dade County Transfer Station where he has worked as a trustee in the past. Plummer then stole one of the Dade County Transfer Station trucks and crashed through a chain link fence.
The Trenton City Police Department and Officers of the Dade County Sheriff's Office then began a high-speed pursuit with Plummer. Plummer was able to hide the vehicle in the woods on the north end of Dade County and he fled on foot. Police said Plummer was traveling as fast as 80 miles per hour along a narrow, winding road.
Plummer is still at large.
Authorities said Plummer has been an inmate at the jail numerous times and was very familiar with its layout.
Anyone with information on the location of Plummer is asked to contact the Dade County Sheriff's Office at 706 657-3233.
