Brock Still on the Run, Says Sheriff

The search goes on Monday for escaped prisoner Keibron Brock, 20. 

Late Friday morning, Brock managed to climb over the wall and razor wire of the Franklin County Detention Center in Carnesville and disappear.

Franklin County authorities, along with canine units from the Department of Natural Resources and other local law enforcement agencies searched a wooded area near the detention center Friday for several hours without success.

After his escape, Franklin County Sheriff Stevie Thomas said it is believed Brock allegedly stole a 2006 gray Cadillac CTS from a home near the jail.  Thomas said the vehicle was found Friday night abandoned in Bowersville.

Lookouts have been put out for him in Georgia and South Carolina.

Authorities are also asking for the public’s help to locate Brock.

He is described as a light-skinned black male, age 20,  6″3″, 160lbs.  He was last seen wearing orange jail shorts and a white t-shirt.

Brock was in the detention center awaiting trial on several charges, including burglary, armed robbery, and aggravated assault.

In July 2012, Thomas arrested Brock and charged him with a string of burglaries in Carnesville, Canon, Sandy Cross, and Royston.

He was out on bond on those charges when he was arrested again in October, 2012, and charged with a home invasion and shooting of an elderly man in the Victoria Bryant Park area of Franklin Springs.  In addition to the home invasion and shooting, Brock and an accomplice were charged with six counts of burglary.   Thomas said the pair stole over $20,000 in merchandise during their crime spree.

Hart County authorities have also issued warrants for Brock. Hart County Sheriff Mike Cleveland said Brock and an accomplice are suspects in at least four burglaries there.

At the time of his escape Friday, Brock was being held without bond in the Franklin County Detention Center on those charges.

Brock is considered dangerous. If you see him, Thomas said do not approach him, but call your local 911 or the Franklin County Sheriff’s office at 706-384-2525.  You do not have to give your name.
