Indianapolis, IN – Law enforcement agencies across Marion County are searching for a man who escaped custody Tuesday during a transport to the Marion County Community Justice Campus.
According to a statement from Marion County Community Corrections, Dionte Green, 35, allegedly jumped from a transport vehicle and fled custody earlier today. Officials clarified that no inmate escaped from the Marion County Adult Detention Center, contrary to early reports.
Community Corrections, which operates independently from the Marion County Sheriff’s Office, confirmed Green was wearing leg shackles and handcuffs at the time of his escape. He was last seen wearing a black jacket and blue jeans.
Authorities say Green was under arrest for unlawful possession of a firearm by a serious violent felon, connected to an outstanding warrant from Marion County (case number 49D21-2010-F4-031381).
Multiple agencies are assisting in the search. Police urge anyone with information on Green’s whereabouts to call 911 immediately. A recent booking photo was released to help the public identify him.
