Three DeKalb County inmates have escaped from jail early Wednesday morning.
Sheriff Patrick Ray said it appears the inmates escaped from the back of the jail annex through a door they managed to open.
The escapees are identified as 38-year-old Jack Mullican Jr., 32-year-old Bryon Ray Gibbs, and 26-year-old Daniel Trey Hamilton.
Mullican was incarcerated for a violation of probation and charges of aggravated burglary, theft of property, vandalism and a child support attachment.
Gibbs was in jail on charges of aggravated burglary, evading arrest, failure to appear, vandalism, theft of property, domestic assault, and aggravated assault. According to Sheriff Ray, Gibbs was initially arrested for domestic assault and posted bond. He was later charged with aggravated assault and vandalism and made bond. When he returned to court on November 9, the judge revoked his bond for getting into further trouble.
