PINE BLUFF, Ark. — Inmate Timothy Buffington, who is seen on surveillance video arming himself before escaping the Pine Bluff Complex, is currently being sought by the Arkansas Department of Corrections.
Arkansas Matters reports that Buffington broke into a safe room at a house located on the prison grounds while performing yard/janitorial work.
Though the door was deadbolted, Buffington kicked in the frame to gain access. He took a shot gun and used it to threaten a woman to drive him off the prison grounds.
The video also shows that Buffington obtained a camouflage hat and clothing, which he may or may not still be wearing.
