UPDATE: Sheriff says Hanselman escaped from medical center early Friday

A Greene County, Tennessee suspect wounded in an officer-involved shooting made his escape from Johnson City Medical Center just before 6:30 Friday morning.

Sheriff Wesley Holt said in a statement that Mark Hanselman, 55, was taken to the Ballad Health facility for a surgical procedure for the wound received when he was shot by a deputy last week.

Hanselman’s escape triggered a shelter-in-place alert at the ETSU campus which was later lifted.
