Two Escape From Bell County Forestry Camp

The search continues for 37 year old Timothy Bowling and 28 year old Sammy Chilton, two inmates who escaped around 6:00 P.M. Monday from the Bell County Forestry Camp. Officers say the two were present at the 3:30 P.M. count but they were not present for the 6:00 P.M. count. Officials say a dog followed their scent into the woods next to the camp, but then lost them. Tuesday, Kentucky State Police searched several places in the Wallins area of Harlan County where Bowling is from but still did not find them. Chilton is serving a five year sentence for drug trafficking in Marshall County. Bowling is serving a seven year sentence for theft and drug charges in Harlan County.
