HALLOWELL, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Authorities are looking for an escaped prisoner from the Central Maine Pre-Release Center in Hallowell.

Around 6 p.m. on Monday, Justin Ross, 35, from Farmington, disappeared from his work release site in Leeds.

Ross had been serving a sentence for domestic violence assaults since June of last year.  He was scheduled to be released on October 29th with probation lasting until 2014.
