Warren police say Michael Burham was last seen wearing a blue denim coat from the jail, white and orange pants, and orange shoes. Police say Burham was being held on arson and burglary charges and was a suspect in a homicide investigation. They say he is also associated with a prior carjacking and kidnapping of a local couple. A county spokeswoman says he escaped using bed sheets tied together.
