Sheriff says shooting of two Georgia corrections officers caught on video

Source: Atlanta Journal

The shooting of two Georgia correctional officers Tuesday morning was caught on video, according to Putnam County Sheriff Howard Sills, who declined to go into details.

Law enforcement continued to search into the evening for the two inmates who shot the officers and escaped from a bus during a routine prisoner transfer.

The men were reportedly seen in a Family Dollar store on Eatonton Road in Madison, Ga., where they also ransacked a house, stealing clothes and food.

"My concern is with them doing harm to someone else," Sills said during a press conference Tuesday evening.

Still no evidence as to "why". Probably one of the strangest cases I've ever heard of anywhere. Why the beheading?
