California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation is looking for a man who walked away from a Bakersfield re-entry facility Sunday.
Stephen Beavers, 30, was transferred from Wasco State Prison to the Male Community Re-entry Program (MCRP) in Kern County back on August 19th.
The MCRP allows eligable inmates to end their state prison sentences in a re-entry center, and provides them with programs and tools to make the transition back into the community easier.
Sunday, Beaver's GPS device was found to be tampered with, and officials initiated an emergency search.
Beavers was scheduled to be released to probation in December 2016.
He is described as a white male, with partially gray hair and blue eyes. He is 6 feet tall and weighs around 184 pounds.
Anyone with information on Stephen Beavers' whereabouts is encouraged to contact BPD or call 911.
