Inmate Russell Sitton failed to report to work release job in Rapid City; white, age 36, 5'11", 175 lbs, red hair.

Inmate Russell Sitton left the Rapid City Community Work Center earlier this morning to go to his work release job, but failed to report to the jobsite at the appointed time. The employer notified Department of Corrections staff members and escape procedures were enacted.

Sitton, age 36, is a white male, 5 feet 11 inches tall and weighs approximately 175 pounds.

Sitton is currently serving a 3-year sentence for DWI 4th offense out of Pennington County and a concurrent 4-year sentence for possession of a controlled substance out of Meade County.

Failure to return following an assignment constitutes second-degree escape, a class 5 felony, and is punishable by a maximum of 5 years in prison.
