A homicide suspect who used bed sheets to escape from a north-western Pennsylvania jail is probably still in the area and someone may be helping him to evade capture, police said after discovering possible campsites in nearby woods.

Michael Burham, 34, fled the Warren county prison late last Thursday by climbing on exercise equipment, climbing through a window and down a rope fashioned from jail bedding, authorities said. Burham was being held on $1m bail and was charged with kidnapping, burglary and other counts.
