A robbery suspect has escaped from Acton Conservation Camp Monday, prompting a search from local law enforcement, officials said.
During an inmate count at around 7 a.m., staff discovered inmate Christian Ledon, 19, reportedly did not check in with staff at the dining hall, according to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR).
A search of the camp buildings and grounds was immediately conducted.
Ledon was last seen at 5:05 a.m. during a count, according to CDCR officials.
California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation’s Office of Correctional Safety, CAL FIRE, the California Highway Patrol and local law enforcement agencies have been notified and are assisting in the search, according to officials:
Ledon is a minimum-security inmate described as a Hispanic male, 5’11”, weighing 154 pounds with brown eyes and black hair.
He was committed to the CDCR on May 30, 2019, from San Diego County to serve a four-year sentence for second-degree robbery.
He was scheduled to be released in July 2021.
Anyone who sees Ledon is encouraged to call 9-1-1 or law enforcement authorities immediately.
Anyone with information about or knowledge of the location of Ledon is encouraged to call the Acton Conservation Camp commander at (661) 268-0113.
