Grogan wrote that Lawrence Felter is currently wanted for 'Felony Escape from Official Detention.'

Felter is described as being a 46-year-old Native American male, standing approximately 5'11" and weighing 230 pounds. He has brown eyes, black hair, and multiple face tattoos, including a feather and cross writing above his eyebrows. He also has tattoos on his neck, and both arms and hands.
