A $5,000 reward has been offered to anyone who can provide information that will lead to the arrest of an alleged rapist who escaped Tuesday from a New Bedford hospital, Bristol County Sheriff Thomas M. Hodgson said.
Anthony Flye, a 38-year-old Nantucket and Swansea man, escaped from St. Luke’s Hospital, where he was taken after injuring himself during an arraignment in New Bedford Superior Court Tuesday.
He faces charges that include child rape, rape, and indecent assault and battery on a disabled person.
