The Florence County Sheriff’s Office arrested a man who escaped from a bail bondsman on Tuesday.
Lt. Anthony Fox says Leslie Michael Martin was arrested at 12:45 p.m after escaping from a bail bondsman.
Chief Deputy Glen Kirby says Martin was previously arrested for discharging a firearm into a dwelling and released on bond. Martin failed to show in court and a bail bondsman tracked him down. When the bondsman handcuffed Martin, he ran.
A K9 unit searched the area behind the Thunderbird Inn and Good Boy Road for about 3 hours, according to Fox.
No other information about the suspect or the search has been released.
