Authorities in Georgia announced Tuesday that they were offering a $60,000 reward for information leading to the recapture of two escaped inmates suspected of shooting and killing two prison guards on a transport bus.
Investigators say Donnie Russell Rowe, 43, and Ricky Dubose, 24, overpowered the guards at around 6:45 a.m. Tuesday, as 33 inmates were being driven between prisons. One of the pair shot and killed both guards before they carjacked a driver who happened to pull up behind the bus as it stopped on a rural highway, said Putnam County Sheriff Howard Sills.
"We are still desperately looking for these two individuals. They are armed with 9 mm pistols that were taken from these correctional officers. They are dangerous beyond description. If anyone sees them or comes into contact, they need to call 911 immediately," the sheriff said.
....Rowe, whose nickname is “Whiskey,” was convicted of armed robbery and is in prison for life without parole. Dubose was also convicted of armed robbery. Rowe has been in prison since June 2002. Dubose has been in prison since July 2015. Dubose was allegedly a member of the Ghostface Gangsters, a white supremacy street gang, according to WXIA.
