Inmate escapes from Greene County Jail
Police said an inmate escaped from Greene County Jail Sunday after he failed to return from a scheduled medical furlough.
Matthew Bartimus, 42, of Bethesda, Ohio, is 6-feet tall with brown hair and blue eyes, and weighs 230 pounds, police said.
According to an inmate database, Bartimus was lodged in the jail Sept. 21 and released just before 7 p.m. Sunday.
