VIA: Ex-Oregon Ducks star Colt Lyerla has escaped from a correctional facility … and now cops in Oregon have issued a warrant for his arrest.
Lyerla was slapped with a six month sentence in March after being convicted on a drug possession charge.
A rep from the Washington County Community Corrections Center tells TMZ Sports they realized Colt had bolted from their facility Thursday afternoon, after an open window triggered an alarm.
They did a search of the building and noticed he was missing.
The rep says they’ve placed 24-year-old Lyerla on “escape status” and a warrant has been issued for his arrest.
The ex-tight end now faces a felony escape charge.
The corrections center is a minimum security work release and transition facility. Lyerla was moved there from county jail on April 26.
