Authorities were searching Friday for an escapee from a federal prison in Safford, Ariz.
A Graham County Sheriff's Office dispatcher confirmed the escape, but could provide no details.
Phil Gutierrez, a spokesman for the Federal Correctional Institution prison in Safford, said no information about Thursday's escape would be released until Friday.
Arizona Department of Corrections spokeswoman Cam Hunter said the DOC had been asked to assist in the search but she didn't have any other information.
State Department of Public Safety officers set up roadblocks in the Safford area.
The Bureau of Prisons website lists the Federal Correctional Institution in Safford as a low security facility.
