The individuals are described as follows: black/male 5’3” tall and 110 lbs.; black/male 5’9” tall and 135 lbs. Both were last seen wearing gray sweatpants.

The stolen vehicle they were in was found abandoned in the area of Paint Township, Clarion County, where they were later seen on foot; however, the escapees eluded capture following a lengthy search of the area.
