A prisoner who was tied and wearing a leg iron managed to escape from a Queensland hospital.
Barry Kenneth Bloomfield ran away from Rockhampton Hospital earlier this morning.
It is advised for anyone who sees him to phone Triple Zero right away rather than approaching him.
Currently serving a two and a half year sentence for assault resulting in actual bodily injury is Bloomfield.
Bloomfield is a medium-built man who is 176 cm tall and weighs 86 kg.
Along with other tattoos on his forearms and hands, he has a clown tattoo on his right hand and chest.
The second patient to vanish from Rockhampton Hospital in the last month is Bloomfield.
Peter Roach, an 80-year-old patient, left the hospital in the middle of last month and hasn’t been seen since.
Roach has been described as non-verbal and suffering from a physical ailment that may create confusion.
