BOLEY — At one point Tuesday, five Department of Corrections inmates were on the loose after escapes at two separate facilities. One inmate was captured Tuesday afternoon, while four other inmates remain at-large.
Danny J. Cook, 40, who escaped from the William S. Key Correction Facility at Fort Supply on Tuesday morning, was arrested in Enid as he talked on a pay phone at an Enid gas station, said Capt. Dean Grassino. Two undercover detectives noticed Cook, who was wearing a shirt that said "Inmate." The shirt had been turned inside out, but the word was still visible, Grassino said.
Cook has a lengthy criminal record that includes fraud, forgery, embezzlement and a prior escape from the Pittsburg County jail.
In Boley, sheriff's deputies continue to search for four men who escaped from the John H. Lilley Correctional Center about 1 p.m. on Tuesday, said Jerry Massie, spokesman for the Department of Corrections.
Law enforcement officers are searching for:
• Christopher Caskey, 23, a white male, about 6 feet tall and weighs 150 pounds. He has blond hair and brown eyes.
Jack L. Weems, 19, a white male, about 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighs 158 pounds. He has brown hair and brown eyes.
Ricky D. Parks, 26, who is a white male, about 5 feet 5 inches tall and weighs 136 pounds. He has blond hair, blue eyes and a tattoo on his neck.
Bobby J. Stow, 45, who is a white male, about 5 feet 6 inches tall and weighs 145 pounds. He has brown hair and hazel eyes. Stow has two prior escape convictions.
Anyone with information about the escapees should call (866) 363-1119 or the Okfuskee County Sheriff's Department at (918) 623-1122.
