Escapee Back In Custody

The St. Francis County Sheriff Department is proud to announce that Jonathan Paulman who stole a county jail vehicle and escaped from the Detention Center is now back in the St. Francis County Detention Center.  Paulman was taken into custody last night around 10:45 PM without incident after he was found hiding out in a camper just west of Parkin, Arkansas.  The Sheriff Department would like to thank the US Marshals Service, Arkansas State Police, Cross County Sheriff Department, Arkansas Game & Fish, First Judicial Drug Task Force, and the Arkansas Department of Correction out of Newport with their assistance with their K-9 team.
