YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK, Mont. (AP) — Authorities say there’s a “significant development” in the search for two convicted killers who escaped from an Arizona prison and their suspected accomplice in an around Yellowstone National Park.

The U.S. Marshals Office and Arizona authorities say they would make an announcement about the case Monday morning.

More than 100 armed park rangers and federal agents searched in and around tourist-packed Yellowstone, as an estimated 30,000 people entering the park were warned about the search.

Efforts to find the trio have intensified after one of the inmates was linked to a double homicide in New Mexico.

The rangers patrolled campgrounds on the sprawling park that spans Montana and Wyoming.
