There was some excitement yesterday afternoon in downtown Summerville as a man that was being escorted to the Chattooga County Jail tried to make a get-away.  The man was quickly recaptured by law enforcement authorities.

The man has been identified by the Chattooga County Sheriffs Department as Lewis Adams of a Highway 48 address.  Adams had appeared in court on child support charges and as he was being escotred to the jail he ran away from the deputy that was escorting him.

After a brief search the man was recaptured on Economy Street and returned to the Chattooga County Jail where he is facing additional charges.
