Prison escapees may have stayed in N.Y. cabin
The focus of an intense manhunt for two escaped murderers on the lam for more than two weeks has shifted back to upstate New York, with police saying Monday that Richard Matt and David Sweat may have spent time in a cabin about 20 miles from the maximumsecurity prison they fled.
A reported burglary near Owl’s Head, about 20 miles from the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora, N.Y., has led police to refocus search efforts, New York State Police Maj. Charles Guess said.
