The Latest on the killing of two prison guards and escape of two inmates during a bus transport in Georgia (all times local):
6:30 p.m.
A Georgia sheriff says authorities still have no idea where two escaped inmates wanted in the killings of two guards are right now.
But Putnam County Sheriff Howard Sills says the fugitives did commit a burglary in Madison, about 25 miles north of the spot where they previously seen carjacking a motorist after escaping from a prison bus.
He says an intense manhunt focused on Madison after two men fitting the description were seen entering a Family Dollar store there, less than a mile from a house that was burglarized.
He says authorities have no reason to believe the two inmates have split up.
Authorities say 43-year-old Donnie Russell Rowe and 24-year-old Ricky Dubose killed 42-year-old Sgt. Christopher Monica and 58-year-old Billue after overpowering and disarming them on a transport bus Tuesday morning.
I think I’ve seen this movie. Nick Nolte, Eddie Murphy.
I can only Hope they end up in a Jihad community.
I’d Buy Tickets to the Fight !
Reporter: Why were the suspects shot 137 times?
Sheriff:I figure because about 63 rounds missed and we didn’t get to reload
Dubose committed an armed robbery and apparently shot the victim in the hand a couple of years ago in the county my dad lives in. According to one news report, he had been convicted of 8 felonies by the time he was 21, so he is definitely not a model citizen. His family lives in an adjacent county so law enforcement is on a heightened alert around here.
It was thought that the cops had the two trapped in a Family Dollar store in a nearby small town earlier today, but they apparently escaped. Hopefully they will be caught soon.
@Plantsman – in the area these two are roaming around in they are more likely to end up in a wild hog community than a jihad one. But there are plenty of rednecks in these parts that are heavily armed themselves, so robbing someone out here might present a bigger challenge than they are hoping for.
I hope they both end up in a bag with a toe tag.
Black inmates still waiting for these two to get them out.
