Deputies on the hunt for accused killer who escaped from transport van

'According to Lewis and Clark County Sheriff Cheryl Liedle, she was notified at about 11 a.m. that 28-year-old Dueston A. Haggard removed his shackles en route to Deer Lodge from Cascade County, and bailed out of the van near the intersection of I-15 and Lincoln Road.

Unfortunately for law enforcement officers, the escape — believed to have occurred at about 7 a.m. — wasn’t discovered until the van arrived at Montana State Prison at about 11 a.m."

I'm guessing that this guy didn't just bail out of the van going 75 mph down the interstate. Early reports said that he had escaped when they stopped at a convenience store.

Now I don't know about you, but one of the things I learned early on was that when you make a bathroom stop, you make sure everyone is back in the car before you leave. That would seem to be particularly important WHEN TRANSPORTING MURDERERS!
