Greenville, N.C. — Pitt County deputies and state Highway Patrol troopers continued to search Thursday for six teens who escaped from a juvenile detention center.
Five boys and a girl escaped from the Pitt Regional Juvenile Services Center this week. Authorities said they believe four of the teens stole a state-owned vehicle, while two of the boys might have fled on foot.
