BARBOURSVILLE, W.Va. — An inmate who escaped from custody Sunday night while receiving medical treatment at Highlands ARH is back in custody, after being arrested in West Virginia.

Thomas Price, 37, of Williamsport, was being held in the Floyd County Detention Center, when he was taken to Highlands ARH for treatment of an unspecified medical condition. At the hospital, he was able to get away from a sheriff’s deputy and flee with an accomplice, who police have identified as a Cindy Rodriguez.

According to a statement on the department’s Facebook page, Prestonsburg Police were able to access Price’s Facebook Messenger account, where they learned he had purchased a prepaid cell phone following his escape. With that information, they were able to ping his phone and find out his location, giving that information for West Virginia authorities who arrested him Monday evening.

Price was being held in the Floyd County Detention Center ever since his arrest back in February. At that time, Price had been wanted for fleeing police in Johnson County, allegedly pointing a gun at officers in the process. On Feb. 20, he was spotted in Prestonsburg, prompting police to try to arrest him. He fled in his car instead, leading to a chase reaching speeds of up to 110 mph on U.S. 23, before he turned onto Abbott Creek Road.

Price’s car was found abandoned on Abbott Creek a short time later. Police continued to canvass the area until he was spotted later that evening on a local resident’s porch, asking to use their phone.

At that time, he was charged with fleeing police, wanton endangerment and numerous other charges in Floyd County, and similar charges in Johnson County. He will now face even more charges when he is returned to Kentucky in the coming days.
