Authorities say two men from Tulsa housed at the Jackie Brannon Correctional Center in McAlester escaped from the facility Wednesday morning.

Prison officials say 22-year-old Jeffery Walker, who was serving a sentence for robbery with a firearm and 27-year-old Terry Buckley, who was serving a sentence for possession of a controlled and dangerous substance were last seen walking away from the center.

Both men were wearing gray jackets at the time.

Walker, a black male, 5-foot-6, 161 pounds and was set to be released in April of next year and Buckley, a black male, 5-foot-8, 156 pounds was set for release in 2023.

Authorities are looking in McAlester and Tulsa for both men.
