Escaped Inmate Tracked Through North Escambia Remains On The Run
August 1, 2019
An escaped inmate that was tracked through the North Escambia area remains on the run.
Travis Wyatt Dawson, 41, escaped from Loxley Work Release at about 9 p.m. July 10.
Authorities believe he was in the area of Rockaway Creek Road and Miller Road in Nokomis, FL, on July 12. The US Marshals and officers from the Alabama Department of Corrections were assisted by the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office, Atmore Police Department and other agencies in a manhunt in both Florida and Alabama along and near Rockaway Creek Road. That manhunt turned up empty.
Dawson was reportedly armed with a machete when he carjacked a minivan from a relative on Miller Road on Sunday, July 14. . The vehicle was later found abandoned in Mobile.
Dawson was sentenced to 20 years in 2013 on a possession of a controlled substance conviction in Escambia County, AL.
Anyone with information on his whereabouts is asked to call the Alabama Department of Corrections at (800) 831-8825, the Escambia County (FL) Sheriff’s Office at (850) 436-9620 or 911.

Smarter than one would expect.
Just look for a man with 0ut any ears .
@just wondering
Travis must somehow remind Elmer of the old move with Tom Hanks “Forrest Gump”
“RUNNNNN FORRRRRRESTTTT RUUUUUUUN”! LOL!!
if Travis is still in this area he is pretty dumb. A smart criminal on-the-run would be as far away from here as possible. JMHO.
Elmer,out of pure curiosity,why did you post,”Run,Travis,run.”???
Maybe they should be putting out an image of him that wasn’t taken with a convex lens so people have an idea what he really looks like? If I see someone that looks like he’s part fish though I will definitely contact the ECSO.
Run Travis Run
Ummm. I figured they would have caught this guy by now, seeing he don’t look to smart! He must have had a good plan in order. He could be clear across the country by now.
