Brownsville Police has reported that an inmate who escaped from the Edmonson County Courthouse today was apprehended soon after headed near the Brownsville City Park.

Police said that around 4:30pm this afternoon, Edmonson County Dispatch alerted all officers to be on the lookout for Michael Snyder, 21, of Rineyville, Ky, who had fled on foot 
from the jailer's custody while outside the courthouse.

Brownsville Police arrived soon afterwards and were reportedly directed by concerned citizens toward the city park, who said they had witnessed Snyder fleeing in that direction.

Police also said that Snyder was seen coming out of the bushes near the home of District 2 Constable  when he was tackled by the constable and a sheriff's deputy.  All other units arrived in the area shortly after.
