Yellowstone Insider Your Complete Guide to America's First National Park
John Charles McCluskey (left), 45, and Tracy Province (right), 42, escaped the private prison in Kingman, Arizona prison on July 30 and headed out of the state. Their accomplice, 43-year-old Casslyn Mae Welch (center), threw tools onto the prison yard, allowing them to escape. The pair are described by the U.S. Marshals Service as being armed and dangerous: Province was serving a life sentence for murder and armed robbery, while McCluskey was serving 15 years for attempted second-degree murder, aggravated assault and discharge of a firearm.
“Information developed within the past two days indicated the escapees may be hiding in the Yellowstone Park area within Montana and Wyoming,” U.S. Marshals said in a statement Sunday. “It is believed Tracy Province has separated from John McCluskey and Casslyn Welch.”
The pair have gone on a spree of sorts since breaking out of prison: they are suspected in the murder of an Oklahoma pair traveling in New Mexico as well as allegedly hijacking an 18-wheel truck.
U.S. Marshals are in the Park and working with the National Park Service on a search for the trio.
