A Bowie County jail fugitive was shot and killed Monday while being taken into custody.The identity of the inmate is being withheld, pending family notification procedures, the Arkansas State Police said late Monday.
The incident involved two Texarkana, Arkansas, police officers. Officials of the local police department have requested the Arkansas State Police to investigate the use of deadly force by one of its officers.
Earlier Monday, police released information on two escaped inmates from the Bowie County jail annex.
Bowie County Sheriff Jeff Neal said Michael Olson and Wayde Land had broken through cinder block, climbed into pipe chase and knocked a hole through concrete on the back wall to exit the jail. The breach was located on the second floor of the jail annex.
Once outside, the men were able to maneuver through the perimeter fencing and concertina wire before fleeing the facility, Neal said. The inmates were wearing issued green jail clothing at the time of the escape.
“Video footage later shows they got on a train,” the sheriff said.
About 1 p.m. Monday, one of the Arkansas-side police officers located the escapees outside 210 East St., according to the state police. Subsequently, both officers approached the pair in an attempt to apprehend the escapees.

That first story is such a headache, the “writer” needs to back to school for remedial English. Who did what to whom? I’ll have to re-read this hot mess later after my morning java infusion.
Welcome to our world, Tox. I used to think I had Outstanding Reading Comprehension. Now-a-days…not so much. The struggle is real. These editors needs to hire Sister Mary Grace…and her ruler.
Dood…she’s just not that into you anymore; but her new bf’s knife is. And are you the “victim” when you start the fight?
The DRT perp was up to Ol’ Pat Henry’s statement. That whole Liberty or Death thing.
I know a lying POS semi locally here that can’t make up his mind if his personal weapon in the Viet of the Nam was the 870 Trench Shottie, The M60 Pig, or the Ma Deuce. Bitch was a NG Moto Grader Operator, closest he got there was Ft Lost in Woods MO. Think I’ll give my Mossy Maverick a hug. It’ll cook a bad guy’s goose and put him on ice, man. Nothing like a short barrel shottie when you’re in a danger zone.
Passive voice o rama!
Broke through cinder block and concrete? Either someone has a hard head, or security at the jail is lax enough to allow the inmates to have access to tools/sledge hammers.
Or they’re juggernauts, b*tch.

Did they cover up the tunneling with a Missus Fuzzybritches poster?
Sheesh! Some people and their “first world” problems.
“which load should I put in & on my shottie? and how many? how to keep them from getting gender confused. brass up? or brass down? how to keep ME from getting gender confused! (best george takai voice) ohhh my.”
Meanwhile, the philosophy at Fort Roh-Dog be: ain’t no problem that ambulates can’t be solved with double-aught.
See!? I like that! The KISS principle. Keep It Simple for the Stoopid. Easy to remember, easy to implement.
