PHELPS COUNTY, Mo. — The FBI is searching for an inmate who escaped the Phelps County Jail at approximately 11:09 a.m. on Saturday.

Inmates Jonathan O’Dell and Steven Scott escaped by comprising the structural integrity of the cell and exiting the building.

Shortly after, Scott turned himself in.

O’Dell is facing federal charges. According to a federal indictment, O’Dell allegedly planned to travel to Texas to shoot at illegal immigrants crossing the United States-Mexico border.
