Authorities are searching for a man who escaped from a Henry County Courtroom.

The Henry County Sheriff’s Office said on Facebook that 23-year-old Christian Thompson of Osceola was scheduled to appear for an ongoing criminal case filled by the state.

Thompson fled the court room after the judge made a request.

Deputies told Thompson to stop but he refused.

The court has issued a warrant for his arrest.
