Jim Bass Burglar Escapes

The man arrested last night in connection to an attempted burglary at Jim Bass Ford has escaped from the hospital and is being sought by San Angelo Police patrol officers.

Scanner traffic at around 7:25 p.m. indicated that police were searching for a patient, who still had IVs in his arms. No description of what the man was wearing or where he was running was mentioned over the scanner. 

The IVs were found by hospital staff in the parking lot, the scanner said. The man was brought to the hospital by ambulance last night after being caught at the dealership, possibly due to a diabetic attack. 

Several incoming phone calls to the man's room were reported over the scanner, however it was not mentioned whether any of those phone calls pertained to his escape. 

Update 8:20 p.m.
