WILLIAMSON — A Williamson man is facing felony charges after a failed jail escape. According to a criminal complaint, Eric Murphy, 44, escaped custody of the Southwestern Regional Jail while being escorted to the holding cell at the Mingo County courthouse. Murphy ran, while shackled and cuffed toward the Harvey St. Bridge. He went under the bridge and down the riverbank where he lost his footing and rolled to the bottom. Officers gave him multiple commands to stop and come to the river bank which he refused. He then swam down the river and attempted to go to the Kentucky side. Murphy continued north in the river until he went underwater and almost drowned. He then followed the officer’s commands and waited for the fire department to make it to him. Once the fire department made it to him he became combative and refused to follow commands that the fire department were giving him. Once officers got to the fire department, he was taken to a holding cell of the Mingo County Courthouse.
