A Newaygo County inmate is back in police custody after he escaped from Spectrum Health Gerber Memorial Hospital in Freemont, Mich., according to an article on the Campus Safety website.
The man was being treated for a seizure when he was able to outrun a deputy and security staff. After a four-hour search, police spotted Davis on a motorcycle, where he ran a stop sign and crashed into the side of an oil truck.
Newaygo County Sheriff Bob Mendham said more should have been done to secure Davis, who was not handcuffed when he escaped.
“The initial complaint was that he was having seizures and therefore it may be harmful to apply restraints,” Mendham said in the article. “We have a lot of investigating to do yet before we can put this one away.”
