Manhunt for Robinson Continues

Justin Robinson is still at large, and the Ray County Sheriff’s Office has released video of the escape.

Security footage of two inmates has been released by Ray County Sheriff’s Office and shows Robinson and another inmate attack and stab a jail worker about twelve times with a homemade weapon before they made their escape. The weapon was a shank they made from metal that was peeled off the jail wall. The video shows the jail worker was stabbed in the neck 10 to 12 times.

Robinson and the other inmate did escape, however deputies did find him that same night. Other agencies such as the U.S. Marshals and the Department of Homeland Security and local law enforcement, are continuing to search for Robinson.

In a video posted on the Ray County Facebook Page, Ray County Sheriff Scott Childers said that officers don’t have “a great idea” of Robinson’s location, but he does believe Ray County residents are safe. He encouraged community members to remain vigilant, lock their doors and help keep one another safe.

Robinson is 5 feet, 10 inches tall and weighs about 185 pounds. He has brown hair and brown eyes, and an “816” tattoo across his neck. He was charged in January with several counts of first-degree domestic assault and endangering the welfare of a child after stabbing his pregnant girlfriend in the stomach.

He was last seen Tuesday around 2:45 a.m. in the area of Spartan Drive and East Main Street in Richmond. If you see him you are urged to call 911 immediately. He is considered dangerous.
