An alert store clerk at a Raton Truck Stop alerted Raton Police of a suspicious subject that had been asking customers for help removing hand cuffs Monday morning.

Raton Police responded to the area and were unable to find the subject but later made contact with the individual near Super Save where he was taken into custody without incident. The vehicle that the individual had stolen in Colorado was later located at the Alta Convince Store on East 8th in Raton. That vehicle is being processed by Raton Police.

The escapee had been taken to the Arkansas Valley Regional Medical Center in La Junta by Bent County Sheriff’s Deputies for a medical issue where he allegedly overpowered a deputy and security officer late on April 11 according to news reports in Colorado.

Caillier was an inmate being held at the Bent County Jail after being arrested in February on charges of First Degree burglary with assault, Third Degree assault, and menacing and armed with a deadly weapon.

Caillier is awaiting extradition back to Colorado at the Vigil Maldonado Detention Center in Raton.
