A search is underway after a man escaped from the Dick Connor Correctional Facility yesterday morning.

 45-year-old Ponca Green, who also escaped from a penal institution in 2009, is a 6-1 Native American male weighing 200 pounds. He has noticeable tattoos on his face and neck area.

 Green should be considered dangerous.

 If you see someone matching Green's description, don't approach. Instead, call the Osage County Sheriff's Office at 918-287-3131.
