Summary

Four inmates pulled off a brazen escape from Perry County Correctional Center by staging a fake medical emergency, overpowering two officers, and fleeing by jumping three fences — all caught on video. The getaway vehicle, a black Chevrolet, was spotted moments later, with driver Keivena Lewis arrested within two hours on charges of aiding the escape and obstructing justice. The four fugitives — Marquavious Billingsley, Jaden Maxwell, Johnny Bush Jr., and Kevin Gunn — are still on the run, ditched their uniforms, and face serious charges including murder and assault. Authorities are urging the public to stay away and provide tips as they race to bring the escapees to justice. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
