Authorities in Denver were hunting a prisoner who walked out of the Denver County Jail at about 7 p.m. MT Sunday night, possibly wearing a deputy's uniform and possibly carrying a gun and a police radio, the Denver Post reported.

Police identified the escapee as Felix Dino Trujillo, 24. He is described as 5-foot-6 and 143 pounds, according to police records.?

Dispatchers on police radio said Trujillo was in a deputy's uniform and carrying equipment, but a sheriff's statement issued at about 10:15 p.m. contained no confirmation of that, the Post reported. The statement said Trujillo "may be armed and should be considered extremely dangerous," according to the Post.

Trujillo was jailed on charges of aggravated robbery and a parole violation, according to information from the jail's inmate database.

He was being held on $75,000 bond and was to appear in Denver District Court on May 13, records show.
