Ky. police still looking for 3 escapees

CAMPBELLSBURG, Ky. (AP) - Kentucky State Police say three inmates who escaped from a southern Indiana prison assaulted a person and stole a truck and multiple weapons in northern Kentucky.

State Police Capt. Dean Hayes in Campbellsburg said Monday that the men assaulted someone at a home in Sanders; then took a dull green 1998 Ford Ranger 4X4 super cab with Kentucky registration plate 7824BZ. Troopers said as many as 10 different guns were also stolen.

Hayes said the inmates, wearing flannel shirts and blue jeans, appear to be headed north since Sanders is north of Carroll County, where troopers found a different truck the men were suspected of taking on Sunday.

The man who was assaulted was being taken to an area hospital, but Hayes could not provide details about his injuries.
The three inmates escaped from the Branchville Correctional Facility in Indiana on Friday.
