Parents who reached out to 7News said the two escapees, Devon McDonald and Sean Traywick, had been spotted at a nearby baseball field and were armed. We spoke with school officials who said those accounts were just hearsay.

The Hobart Police Department posted earlier today that the duo were spotted in their town late last night and that residents should call 911 if they see them.

We reached out to the Kiowa County Sheriff’s Department but were unable to get any information from officials.

We will continue to follow this story and bring you updates if officials release any new information.
