A 29-year-old prisoner escaped custody from Besnard Lake Correctional Camp, say police.
Pinehouse RCMP believe Travis Tyler Smith left the facility at around 2:10 p.m. on Friday.
“It is unknown in which direction Smith headed after leaving the facility, but he does have ties to Montreal Lake and Weyakwin, Sask.,” said the Pinehouse RCMP detachment in a press release.
Investigators believe Smith can be dangerous and are advising the public to not approach him.
Smith is described by police as being approximately six-feet tall and weighing 205 pounds. He has black hair, brown eyes and numerous tattoos.
Some of his tattoos include the “#5” on his left hand, a skull and cross on his right forearm, a skull with a ribbon on his left chest and the word “mom” and a cross on the right side of his neck, say police.
Smith was wearing grey sweatpants, a dark long sleeve shirt, a plaid jacket and a black Nike hat when he left the facility, officials said.
Anyone with information is asked to contact 911, Pinehouse Lake RCMP at 306-884-2400 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
