Two Inmates Still on the Run

Oklahoma prison officials say they are searching for a pair of inmates who walked away from a southwestern Oklahoma prison.

The inmates are among three who walked away Wednesday morning from the Oklahoma State Reformatory in Granite.

A state game warden captured one inmate, 22-year-old Jon Elliot, shortly after Elliot walked away. He is serving a four-year sentence for conspiracy to commit grand larceny out of Le Flore County.

The search continues for the other two: 29-year-old Jody Elmore and 32-year-old Chad Adams.

Officials say Elmore is serving a three-year sentence for forgery out of McIntosh County and may still be wearing prison clothing. Adams is serving a seven-year sentence for carrying contraband into a jail in Pottawatomie County.
