3 juveniles who escaped Granbury detention center are armed and dangerous, police say
Three teenagers who escaped from a Granbury juvenile detention center on Sunday are in the Lancaster area and are armed and dangerous, according to Granbury police.
The boys, aged 16 and 15, got out of the facility at around 6:30 p.m. Sunday, wearing grey sweatshirts and black pants. They injured a staff member in their getaway, police said.
On Monday morning, Granbury police released an image from surveillance camera that they said showed the boys committing an armed robbery after their escape. At least one of the boys can be seen holding a firearm.
CBS News Texas does not normally identify juveniles involved in the criminal justice system but has made an exception in this case due to the potential public safety threat.
Earlier Monday, police released the names, pictures and other information about the suspects.
The suspects are identified as: Kamiron McDole, 16, who was in the facility for a murder charge; Isaiah Lauderdale, 16, was in the facility for a probation violation and a firearms charge; and Asheton Marshall, 15, who was in the facility charged with evading arrest and detention.
All three teens have ties to Cleburne, while McDole also has ties to Lancaster and Alvarado.
Morgan Mill ISD, in a small town in Erath County north of Stephenville and west of Granbury, canceled classes Monday due to the search.
The boys were in the custody of Lake Granbury Youth Services, which is licensed with the Texas Juvenile Justice Department as a pre-adjudication detention facility.
Police said the injured staff member suffered "bodily injury by blunt force trauma." The staff member's condition is unknown.
