The Osage County Sheriff's Department is looking for the person responsible for attempting a prison drop.
According to a Facebook post from the Osage County Sheriff’s Office, the incident took place Friday morning around 4:30 a.m. OCSO Deputies were advised of a "Prison Drop" in progress at Dick Conner Correctional Facility in Hominy.
The prison tower guard was using a thermal scope and saw the suspected individual north of the prison near an oilfield pump jack and then lost sight of the individual near that location.
Deputies saw a moving flashlight in a wooded area. They tracked the individuals for approximately 500 yards but would lose track again. A sniper hood was spotted in a thorn bush, along with a duffle bag containing tobacco, cell phones, hot spots and phone chargers.
Anyone with information on a possible suspect is asked to contact OCSO or Hominy PD; you can remain anonymous.
