 The three allegedly escaped from the Wakulla County jail in Florida's Panhandle just after midnight on Nov. 17. Officials say the men exited the building through the ceiling of the jail's law library.

Investigators believe they're responsible for a series of home burglaries in Virginia plus the theft of an AR-15 assault rifle and an ATM.

Cotterman, 44, is a registered sex offender, who is charged with burglary, criminal mischief and weapon possession, the sheriff's office said. 

Martina, 25, already in custody, is charged with burglary, theft, vehicle theft and criminal mischief. 

Cooper, 43, is charged with burglary of a business, the sheriff's office said.

Based on recent interviews with Martina, authorities believe Cotterman and Cooper are heading west out of North Carolina. They are being considered armed and dangerous.
