In a press release, the Marion County Sheriff's Office in Indiana said Kevin Mason, 28, was mistakenly released from its Adult Detention Center on Sept. 13, just two days after being taken into custody "due to a faulty review by staff."
The sheriff's office said it waited six days to inform the public about Mason's release in an effort to maintain a "tactical advantage."
Mason is a homicide suspect and has three warrants for arrest in Minnesota.

According to FOX 9, Mason is connected to a fatal shooting in 2021 outside the Shiloh Temple, a Pentecostal church in Minneapolis.
Court records indicate Mason and Dontevius Ahmad Catchings got into a fistfight outside the temple. When the fight was over, Mason allegedly took out a gun and fired several shots at Catchings, who died from his injuries.
He was charged with second-degree murder and possessing a firearm after a previous conviction.
Marshals describe Mason as "armed and dangerous."
