Three of five Missouri escapees are now in custody in Oklahoma. Pike County Sheriff Stephen Korte says Jacob Darnell, Jason Darnell, and Emanuel Chatman, were taken into custody around 2 a.m. Monday in Midwest City, Ok.
Local police say the three were asking for money near a convenience store, and several citizens called in to complain. They were found in a 2003 black Chevy pickup. A police K9 located a methamphetamine pipe on one of the three.
The search continues for William Wilkerson Jr., 40, of Florissant and Joseph Verive male, 49, formerly of Elsberry, Mo. All five men escaped from the Pike County jail Saturday night.
