Maryland inmate walks off from work-release job

Maryland prison officials say an inmate is at large after walking away from a work-release job in Hagerstown.

They say 50-year-old Christopher Randolph failed to return to the medium-security Maryland Correction Training Center after his shift at a downtown food-service business ended at 10 p.m. Monday.

Randolph is formerly of Ijamsville in Frederick County. He was serving a 13-year sentence for robbery with a deadly weapon stemming from a 2004 incident in Frederick County.

The Division of Correction says he was scheduled for release in December.
