Jail escapee called dangerous

By
ATLANTA - An escapee from the Fulton County Jail facing charges in several violent crimes was described as dangerous in a public warning from a sheriff&#39;s officer. <br> <br> Quwan Rogers, 22, of College Park, who fled before dawn Friday, ``should not be approached by anybody, based on the seriousness of the charges against him,&#39;&#39; Sgt. Clarence Huber said. <br> <br> Rogers and his cellmate, Octavio Diaz, 33, of Atlanta crept down a rope made out of a bedsheet after escaping from their sixth-floor cell through a ventilation vent, Huber said. <br> <br> Diaz fell to the ground and was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital for treatment for serious but not life-threatening injuries, Huber said. <br> <br> Rogers was jailed Oct. 10 on charges including false imprisonment, aggravated assault, aggravated battery, aggravated sodomy and rape. <br> <br> East Point police Capt. Patricia Boyce said Rogers was accused of raping a 13-year-old girl, hitting her in the face with a rifle and threatening to kill her.
