(Hamilton County, Oh.) - A man being held on a warrant out of Kenton County, Kentucky escaped an Ohio jail on Sunday.

According to Hamilton County Sheriff Charmaine McGuffey, inmate Patrick Thomas escaped from the Talbert House on Reading Road.

Thomas is a 32-year-old black male, 5'6" and 160 pounds. He also has the letter "P" tattooed on his forehead.

McGuffey says Thomas broke out of a window of the facility and utilized bed sheets to drop from the 3rd floor to the street. HCSO is in the process of signing Escape and Vandalism charges on him.
