Wisconsin bank robbery investigated for connection to escaped Tennessee inmate Jacob Morley

CBS News

Law enforcement are investigating a possible connection between an armed bank robbery in Wisconsin and an escaped inmate in Tennessee.

Jacob Morley, 28, was serving a life sentence for the 2022 murder of his coworker when he escaped from a prison in northwest Tennessee by slipping through a fence over the weekend.  He also stole a truck from the parking lot.

Investigators say camera footage shows Morley escaped while wearing his prison uniform, but did not release any further details.

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said the stolen truck was found Tuesday abandoned in in Marion, Illinois, about 120 miles north of the prison and about 90 miles southeast of St. Louis. Police said the truck appeared to be left neatly behind a shopping center at 4 a.m. Tuesday, according to surveillance video.
