A Jamaican man is on the run in the Bahamas after he escaped police custody while being held by authorities for illegally entering the Caribbean territory, THE STAR has learnt.
He has since been identified as 53-year-old Lance McDonald of Westmoreland, Jamaica.
THE STAR gathered that McDonald is of dark brown complexion with black hair and brown eyes.
According to www.bahamaslocal.com McDonald escaped the Carmichael Road Police Station around 7:20 a.m.
Reports are that as officers attempted to place McDonald into a cell, he resisted and was able to escape after a short struggle in the station.
Our news team understands no one was injured during the struggle, however, it is unclear how many officers attempted to restrain McDonald before he escaped.
An internal probe has been ordered to examine the circumstances which lead to his escape.
