A short time later an officer returned to the hospital to assist with a helicopter landing, and while on scene heard an alarm and observed a nurse outside struggling with a subject outside the emergency room exit. The officer approached the subject, identified as Barney Herbert Humphries Jr., 60, who reportedly failed to respond to verbal commands to halt and walked away.

Officers would learn that Humphries had escaped from care after hospital staff initially called off their first complaint.
