A manhunt is underway in Oregon as authorities search for an accused murderer who was accidentally released this week due to a clerical error.
Ty Anthony Sage, 26, was reportedly released from the Multnomah County Detention Center in Portland after posting bail on Monday, according to FOX 12.
Sage allegedly appeared for a hearing last Wednesday, where a judge ruled to deny him bail the following day. However, a release form dated Sept. 17 indicates Sage’s bail was set at $5,000, allowing him to be released on bail – directly opposing the judge’s order.

Ramsey blasted the mistake made by authorities and expressed her frustration surrounding her son’s alleged killer’s release.
“It’s a major mess up, it’s a monumental mistake that should have never occurred,” Ramsey said.
Ramsey added that Sage’s release has left her and her family in fear as authorities work to locate the alleged killer.
“Very fearful, very fearful, it’s going to be a constant fear for me until he is back in custody, because he is [out of] custody doing God knows what,” Ramsey said.
However, as Sage remains on the loose, Ramsey reportedly said she has lost any sense of hope that her son will receive justice after his death.
“I don’t have any hope,” Ramsey said. “I mean, once they finally caught him and they had him in custody, I had all the hope in the world. I was hopeful, I was completely hopeful. Now that he is no longer in custody, I have 100% doubts.”
