ATLANTA — Police are on a manhunt to find a convicted killer who authorities say escaped the courtroom while on trial for murder.
Shane Woods was convicted of two counts of Felony Murder, Aggravated Assault, Armed Robbery and other charges for a 2013 murder of Decatur man Zachary Rose. But during court proceedings last week, investigators say Woods managed to get out of the court, while a judge considered revoking his bond for tampering with a State witness. Woods did not return for the any of the remaining days of the trial.
The Fulton County judge issued a warrant for Woods, but detectives have yet to locate him.
This all stems from a January 2013 incident in which Alpharetta man, Tyrell Adams, arranged for a drug deal between Rose and Woods at his home on Whitestone Ridge. On the night of the deal, Woods and his accomplice Jerad Owens forced their way into Adams's home with guns drawn. A struggle broke out, during which Owens shot Rose once in the stomach.
Emergency responders transported Rose to the hospital, but he was pronounced dead upon arrival.
After the incident, Woods and Owens ran away from the scene.
During the recent trial proceedings, Owens pleaded guilty to Voluntary Manslaughter. He was sentenced to serve 20 years. Woods escaped and is still on the loose. Investigators consider him armed and dangerous. If anyone has information, they are asked to call police.

Thoughts? The reason I'm placing Woods in the fugitives on tv section is that his PSA (Public Service Announcement) was uploaded to the syndicated crime channel the Justice Network's YouTube page.
