FAYETTE CO., Ind. -- A stolen truck that the Fayette County Sheriff's Department thought might lead them to two escaped inmates has been recovered.
Michael Roberts and Chadwick Heath escaped through a hole in the wall of the Fayette County Jail Friday night.
Jail staff were locking inmates in their cells for the evening and noticed two inmates were missing.
A man who reported his truck missing Sunday morning told the sheriff's department that Roberts has stolen from him in the past.
The sheriff's department says the truck was found in Dayton, Ohio Sunday night with the keys inside.
Officers are searching for the inmates in the area.
Chadwick Heath is currently charged with dealing narcotics and nuisance charges.
Michael Roberts is currently charged with burglary and theft.
A $1,000 reward is being offered for any information that leads directly to the arrest of the escaped inmates.
