SALISBURY --- As of late Sunday evening, police are still on the lookout for an inmate released in error from the Wicomico County Detention Center.

Wicomico County spokesman James Fineran, said Trevor Johnson was let out in error around 6:30 p.m. August 12.

He was being held for a narcotics charge and probation violations on $200,000 bond.

The inmate who was intended to have been released was Tyrai Johnson, for whom family members had posted $50,000 bond.

Fineran said the mix up was a procedural error.

Contacted at his home Sunday evening, Wicomico County Detention Center director George Kaloroumakis said the inmate was probably still unlocated.

"Under these circumstances, we’ve had some luck before. Someone talks to them and says it will work out best for them if they turn themselves in," Kaloroumakis said. "Maybe he'll come back to us on his own, but I haven’t heard anything yet. I like to think if he was located I would be the first to know."
