The search for former police chief Arkansas, convicted of rape and murder, continued after he escaped from prison on Sunday.
Grant Hardin was the police chief in Gaetwe, Arkansas – a small town of several hundred residents on the state border from Missouri – about four months in 2016, the Associated Press reports.
The State Social Media Department said on Sunday that he fled the North Central Division to Kaliko -Rock at about 3:40 pm (20:40 GMT), where he was imprisoned since 2017.
The Department added that Hardin was no longer in prison, and “wore an improvised outfit intended for imitation of law enforcement agencies when he escaped.
Hardin, 56, remains at large. The Department of Corrections called on anyone who has information to “contact local law enforcement” immediately. “
The Department said the BBC that “many agencies” participated in the search.
The Police Police Department also issued a warning on social media, saying that Hardin “has numerous connections and a family in our area.”
They warned society not approaching him, saying that he was “considered armed and dangerous.”
The former prosecutor who helped put Hardin behind bars, called him a “sociopath”, reports KHBS 40/29 News.
“The prison is not full of people who are all bad. He has many people who just make bad things. The grant is different,” said former Benthon Nathan Smith County prosecutor.
Grant Hardin pleaded guilty to killing a first-degree murder of another man-death shooting 59-year-old James EPPLTAN in 2017. He was brought to a 30-year imprisonment.
Mr Appleton worked in the urban water department. He was shot dead and killed by talking to his brother-in-law, then-Mayor, Andrew Tilman, on February 23, 2017, according to the US partner BBC CBS News.
Later, police found Mr. Eppletan’s body in the car.
In November 1997, the timing for the murder of Mr. EPPLTAN appeared in Arkansas, the evidence of DNA, which associate Hardina with a long unresolved rape of Amy Harrison at the Frank Tille elementary school.
According to the CBS News branch, Mrs. Harrison was raped at a right point when she came out of the class to go to the bathroom.
Hardin pleaded guilty and received a period of 50 years.
Before becoming the Gateway police chief, Hardin served as an officer in the Eurka Springs (ESPD) police department.
He resigned in October 1996 after he was informed by the main ESPD Count Count Hayat that he would be faked of the police report, CBS News reports related to News 5news.
“I was going to stop him, but he resigned, and he was caught to lie in a police report,” Mr. Hayat said.
The main Hayat also said he was not surprised by Hardin’s belief, saying 5news: “He was just always very cruel, excessive man and had a very bad character.”
His escape from the prison occurred a few weeks after the unrelated incident, in which 10 prisoners escaped from prison in Novy Orleans, Louisiana, after violation of the wall behind the toilet.
