Neither the private prisoner transport company or the United States Marshals Service have responded about the escape,\u201d the ABC 13 report said.<br \/>In a social media post on Wednesday, the Milwaukee County Sheriff\u2019s Office <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/MilwaukeeCountySheriff\/posts\/256624303177304\">detailed<\/a> what happened after the agency was notified of the incident:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"16\">\n<p>Sheriff\u2019s Office personnel responded immediately, containing the parking structure where Mr. Johnson had evaded pursuit and conducting an intensive search of an area spanning Howell Ave. on the east, South 6th Street on the west, West Grange Avenue on the south, and West Layton Avenue on the north. This search was soon joined by the Milwaukee Police Department. By this point, it appears that Mr. Johnson had fled airport grounds, and a man matching his description was observed in the area of S. 3rd St. and W. Grange Ave. at approximately 9:42 p.m. The search perimeter was expanded significantly, encompassing a significant portion of Milwaukee\u2019s far south side, but without result.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The U.S. Marshal\u2019s Office for the Eastern District of Wisconsin initiated a \u201cfugitive apprehension effort\u201d to find Johnson and put him back in custody, the post read.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-post\" data-href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/MilwaukeeCountySheriff\/posts\/256624303177304\" data-width=\"640\" readability=\"23.525252525253\">\n<blockquote cite=\"https:\/\/graph.facebook.com\/100064892073893\/posts\/256624303177304\/\" class=\"fb-xfbml-parse-ignore\" readability=\"7.6111111111111\">\n<p>Please see the attached Milwaukee County Sheriff&#8217;s Office news release, which includes details of the circumstances of\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Posted by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/MilwaukeeCountySheriff\">Milwaukee County Sheriff&#8217;s Office<\/a> on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/graph.facebook.com\/100064892073893\/posts\/256624303177304\/\">Wednesday, November 10, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cCertainly the U.S. Marshals is conducting the investigation and trying to apprehend the individual and take him back into custody,\u201d Lucas commented. \u201cBut in the meantime there was some procedures that need to be looked at to insure the safety of the flying public.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Federal prisoner Robert Johnson Jr. ran past an unarmed guard on Tuesday inside Milwaukee\u2019s Mitchell International Airport, ABC 13 reported.
