Washington, DC – U.S. Marshals in Virginia and North Carolina are looking for one of two men who escaped the Piedmont Regional Jail in Farmville, Virginia, earlier today and offering a reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to his capture.

Bruce Carroll Callahan, 44, is wanted by the U.S. Marshals Service (USMS) for escape from custody.

Callahan was being held on federal drug and weapons charges issued by the U.S. District Court in the Eastern District of North Carolina.
