MISSOURI – Five inmates escaped from St. Francois County Detention Center in Farmington, Missouri on Tuesday night, authorities said in a statement posted to Facebook.
The suspects, identified as Kelly McSean, Dakota Pace, Aaron Sebastian, LuJuan Tucker and Michael Wilkins, gained access to the jail’s rooftop through the vents and pipes of the building’s plumbing system. They subsequently made their way to the ground, St. Francois County Sheriff’s Department Chief Deputy Gregory Armstrong said.
