A prisoner is still on the loose after he escaped from the vehicle holding area at the Westminster police department Monday morning with his handcuffs still on.

Jaime Gene Williams, 19, was sitting in the back of the patrol car when he removed the seatbelt, kicked out the window of the police car, slipped his handcuffed arms in front of him and ran off, police said.

Officers immediately set up a perimeter and tried to track him with a K-9 but were not successful.

Williams is described as Hispanic, 5 feet 7 inches tall, 140 pounds with short, brown hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing a black shirt.

Williams was in custody for a parole violation for a robbery. If you spot him, you are asked to call Westminster police at (303) 429-1500.
