The massive search for two escaped convicts stretched into day 7 on Saturday as the rain poured down and state police focused on a remote area just a few miles from the Clinton Correctional Fa☂cility.
Authorities swar꧟med nearby Cadyville where a tipster reported s💛eeing two men fitting the fugitives’ description “jumping over a wall,” sources said.
Cops were also scrutinizing surveillance video from a gas station near the prison. They also opened manho🥂les and searched underground pipe🐬s for clues and to make sure the pair had not slipped inside.
More than 800 law enforcement officers, along with K9 units and aircraft, took part in𒆙 the dragnet, along with the FBI and other agencies.
State Police Major Charles Guess said the weather h🌸ampered the search — but also 💮made it tougher on the fugitives.
He add𝐆ed there was no evidence that they fled the area🀅 but also said there had been no confirmed sightings.
