Walnut Hill Felon Charged With Running From Traffic Stop, Ammo Possession
August 21, 2025
A Walnut Hill man was arrested this week after allegedly fleeing from Escambia County Sheriff’s Office deputies earlier this month and being a felon in possession of ammunition.
On August 8, a deputy on routine patrol in the area of Pine Forest Road and Garrett Road observed a Nissan Frontier driven by a male he recognized as 43-year-old Shadrach Jones, and the deputy initiated a traffic stop. As the deputy attempted to handcuff Jones, he broke free and ran, according to an arrest report.
The deputy gave chase but lost Jones in the woods. A warrant was later issued for his arrest.
Jones was charged with driving with a suspended or revoked license and resisting arrest.
He was also charged with felony possession of a weapon or ammunition by a convicted felon for a May 14 incident. Deputies stopped his vehicle near the intersection of Pine Forest Road and Deer Lake Road. According to an arrest report, he had three rounds of 9mm ammunition in his vehicle.
He was transported to the hospital after an unknown medical emergency. A warrant was later issued for his arrest.
Jones remained in the Escambia County Jail on Thursday with bond set at $10,000.

Not saying he doesn’t deserve punishment or he isn’t wrong or anything of that magnitude but he got caught with 3 bullets, driving on a suspended drivers license, and a foot chase where he was just faster on his feet than deputy. No drugs, no violence, no sexual offense, etc… And you guys are just so happy that the “Creep” is in jail in hopes for him to get 10 or 20 years for something no one got hurt over, died, or OD? .. Can we not just say a prayer for this man to get it together and hope he makes better decisions? I hope God does let him off light, he finds the lord, and live a saved life. And I also pray that you two find god as well and become saved. Hopefully God has mercy on you as well and does cast judgement on you as you did this lost man on your individual judgement day. God Bless!
The smug look he is giving is proof that he believes the punishment will be light.
Thank you and God bless to all our Deputies. These creeps are stupid to run when they always get caught sooner or later WITH more charges.
