A manhunt is under way in Georgia for two inmates accused of killing two guards on a prison bus Tuesday morning.
Authorities say Donnie Russell Rowe, 43, and Ricky Dubose, 24, carjacked a getaway car and are armed with the officers' .40 caliber Glock pistols. The Georgia Department of Corrections said in a tweet that people should call 911 and should not approach the men if they see them.
The FBI said the fugitives were seen getting into a "grass green," four-door 2004 Honda Civic with the Georgia license plate number RBJ-6601.
Dubose is described as a white male, 6'1", 140 pounds; Rowe is described as a white male, 6'1", 181 pounds.
Putnam County Sheriff Howard R. Sills said it happened at about 5:45 a.m. on state Highway 16 between Eatonton and Sparta, southeast of Atlanta.
Dubose has an Oconee County arrest record from 2011 on credit card related charges. The Banner Herald reports he was sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2015 in Elbert County, where he pleaded guilty to the robbery and shooting of a 67-year-old man at his rural home.
Rowe is serving life without parole for aggravated assault and armed robbery
