Dustin AdamsA 25-year-old man who escaped from the Hamilton County Jail on Monday went on a crime spree as he fled into Georgia, according to the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office.
Dustin Adams was captured in Fannin County, Ga., late Wednesday night – three days after he and 19-year-old Dylon Lafollette broke out of a second-floor window, climbed bedsheets to the ground and escaped.
Lafollete was recaptured hours later and just a mile away.
But Adams traveled much farther and left a trail of crimes in his wake, according to a release from the sheriff’s office. Investigators suspect he stole a vehicle, burglarized a vehicle and fraudulently used debit and credit cards during his run.
Multiple law enforcement agencies from Tennessee and Georgia assisted in capturing Adams, according to the sheriff’s office. He is being held in the Fannin County Jail until he can be transferred back to Hamilton County.
