Escaped SW Washington Inmate Still Missing A Week Later

It’s been one week since

an inmate in southwest Washington escaped from a prison work crew

. So far,

Randall Marlow

, 45, has not been found, officials said Tuesday.

Marlow was an inmate at the Larch Corrections Center, a minimum-security prison in Yacolt, Washington. He escaped while working with a crew clearing brush.

The prison's public information officer, Danette Gadberry, said they closed down the command center Friday and turned the search over to the community corrections division.

Gadberry said inmates who escape are usually captured quickly. Last year, two inmates who escaped were caught within two hours.
