Dr. Richard Kimble is wrongly convicted for the murder of his beloved wife. Kimble, determined to track down the real killer, escapes from custody following a train crash while being transported to death row. What follows is a game of cat-and-mouse -- for both the true murderer and the good doctor. But while Kimble searches for the real killer, the authorities -- notably Lt. Philip Gerard -- are on the hunt for him.
A woman (Joanna Pettet) gets Kimble a position in an animal hospital, then is furious when he rejects her advances.
Police identify Kimble when he steps in to save an immigrant's (Gilbert Roland) son (Tom Nardini) from bullies.
