A Tennessee fugitive convicted of breaking into convenience stores and stealing cars all over Florida and Tennessee for two decades is reportedly on the loose in Georgia and driving a stolen truck.
Barefooted, 38-year-old Arthur Milks climbed over the razor-wire fence at the Henderson County Jail in West Tennessee on July 25 and hid in the woods before escaping, police say.
On the lam ever since, Milks has led police on a chase from Tennessee to Alabama to Georgia.
“He’s not a run-of-the-mill burglar. He has a method and seems well versed in what he does,” said Robert Paris, chief deputy for the sheriff’s office in Gordon County, Ga., where Milks slipped through a manhunt earlier this week.
No one knows exactly where he is or where he may be headed, although officials say he has family in North Carolina.
