Shelby County Sheriff's Deputies are looking for a Northaven man who walked away from officers late this afternoon at The Regional Medical Center.

During that process, Coleman managed to leave the hospital.

Anyone with information about Dywon Coleman is asked to call the Shelby County Sheriff's Office Fugitive Bureau at (901)545.5620.
