U.S. Marshals say the escaped convict from Arizona and his alleged accomplice are not in Yellowstone National Park any longer and are thought to be in Wyoming, still on the run from the law.

Marshals caught up with Tracy Province (right) in Meeteetse, Wyoming today after a tipster pointed them in that direction; she chatted with him outside a church yesterday and reported him after recognizing him from news accounts. He surrendered to federal officials without a struggle; he was carrying a 9mm pistol and hitchhiking to Casper. The other prison escapee, John Charles McCluskey (left), and his alleged accomplice, 43-year-old Casslyn Mae Welch (center), are believed now to be somewhere in western Wyoming (heading to Casper) in a gray Nissan Sentra after leaving the boundaries of Yellowstone National Park, according to U.S. Marshal David Gonzales.

McCluskey, 45, and Province, 42, escaped a private prison in Kingman, Arizona on July 30 and headed out of the state.  Welch allegedly threw tools onto the prison yard, allowing them to escape. Province was serving a life sentence for murder and armed robbery, while McCluskey was serving 15 years for attempted second-degree murder, aggravated assault and discharge of a firearm. McCluskey is described by the U.S. Marshals Service as being armed and dangerous:

The pair have gone on a spree of sorts since breaking out of prison: they are suspected in the murder of an Oklahoma pair traveling in New Mexico as well as allegedly hijacking an 18-wheel truck.

Canadian Mounties warned last night that the pair may have a goal of heading into Canada.
