Denver man escapes Jefferson County jail by hopping delivery fence

Jefferson County Sheriff’s deputies are searching for a man who escaped the county detention center Saturday.

At 5:20 p.m. Saturday, 42-year-old inmate Jeremy Buchanan was working in the kitchen when he exited the building through a delivery door and escaped over the fence where deliveries are received, the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement on X.

Buchanan was booked into jail on June 2 on charges of first-degree motor vehicle theft, violations of a protection order, violation of parole, possession of a controlled substance, a traffic offense, resisting arrest and several failure to appear offenses.

Buchanan was homeless and living in Denver when he was booked into jail, according the the Sheriff’s office.

Anyone who sees Buchanan should call 911.
