One of the three escaped prisoners from Sharp County is still on the run, but the other two were captured Wednesday night.    Sharp County Sheriff Mark Counts says Christopher John Frey of Horseshoe Bend and Robert Lynn Pollard of Evening Shade were back in custody Wednesday night after escaping earlier in the day.

They were discovered missing along with Randall Paul Sledge of Conway during a morning check.

Authorities haven’t disclosed how they were able to slip away.

Counts says Sledge may be heading to Missouri.

Pollard, according to the sheriff, was incarcerated for fleeing on foot, escape, possession of a controlled substance, and alcohol-related charges. Sledge was incarcerated on charges of fleeing in a vehicle, fleeing on foot, and was being held for other agencies. Frey was in custody on suspicion of criminal use of a prohibited weapon, possession of a controlled substance, and theft by receiving.

Anyone with information about Sledge’s whereabouts should contact the Sharp County Sheriff’s Office at 870-994-7356.
