Two escapees from a Louisiana prison are believed to have carjacked Cupps, 53, who was in Vicksburg on business.
A manhunt continues tonight in western Tennessee for the fugitives, Ricky Wedgeworth, 36, and Darian Pierce, 33.
They were last seen near Jackson, Tenn., when a state trooper attempted to stop them Tuesday night. They were driving Cupps’ rented vehicle.
