GRAHAM COUNTY, AZ — The Arizona Department of Corrections says an inmate escaped custody while on a work assignment in Graham County Thursday.
ADC says Carlos Corella-Rivera was last seen with a supervised off-site work crew at the Graham County Fairgrounds by a fairgrounds supervisor around 11 a.m.
Corella-Rivera was admitted to prison in 2018 after being convicted in Pinal County to serve six years for a dangerous drug violation.
ADC says chase teams, tracking dog teams and a fugitive apprehension unit have been dispatched to search for the suspect.
Anyone with information of his whereabouts is encouraged to call 911.
