(DANNEMORE, N.Y.) — The manhunt for two inmates who escaped from an upstate New York prison intensified after bloodhounds picked up a strong scent, suggesting the escapees could be nearby, an official briefed on the search told ABC News. New York State Police closed a road east of Dannemora to investigate. A stretch of State Route 374 — nearly eight miles long — remains closed Thursday morning, and residents can expect an increased police presence in the area, according to a police news release. In addition, Saranac Central School District is closed on Thursday, with Superintendent of Schools Johnathan Parks wanting to “get out of law enforcement’s way” as the search continues for David Sweat and Richard Matt, he told ABC News. Helicopters buzzed through the area late Wednesday, scanning amid the fog. Searchlights and headlights were used to illuminate fields and farmland, while porch and garage lights shined from homes, all meant to aid the search efforts. Read More. |
