CHICAGO — More than a day after a convicted killer escaped from a Kankakee County jail, authorities said they suspect someone is helping hide him from police.
Kamron Taylor, 23, broke out of the Jerome Combs Detention Center around 3 a.m. Wednesday, after overpowering a jail guard and donning his uniform. He managed to get through three locked doors in the jail before stealing the guard’s personal vehicle, which was found abandoned several hours later. Taylor has yet to be found.
“Someone is helping him, concealing him,” Kankakee County Sheriff Timothy Bukowski said Thursday morning. “We will prosecute those people to the full extent of the law, if they conceal Mr. Taylor.”
