Another search for hospital escapee

POLICE are searching for a man who escaped from the Canberra Hospital, avoiding his arrest, at about 3pm on Wednesday (August 16). 

31-year-old Aaron Jones was in custody for breaching a court ordered condition. He appeared before court on Thursday, August 10, and was later transferred to the custody of Health Officials at the Canberra Hospital.

Mr Jones is described about 165cm tall, of solid build, with brown eyes, and a shaved head. He has a tattoo behind his left ear and the words “show no remorse” tattooed on his right arm.

ACT police warn members of the public not to approach Aaron.
