An 18-year-old black male ran away from work detail at the Mounted Patrol Barn about 11:30 a.m. today.

Chris Spearman of the 200 block of North Western was participating in the Shreveport City Jail’s Work Release program. He was cleaning stalls at the Mounted Patrol Barn downtown.

Part of Spearman’s orange jail uniform was found in the woods near the barn.

He was arrested Sunday on the traffic-related charges of careless and reckless driving, flight in a vehicle, failure to yield, no driver’s license, no seat belt and no proof of insurance.

When captured, he will face a felony charge of simple escape.
