Leaked photos from Georgia's Bibb County jail have revealed how four inmates may have escaped and sparked a manhunt involving the FBI.

Inmates Joey Fournier, Marc Kerry Anderson, Johnifer Dernard Barnwell and Chavis Demaryo Stokes are all on the run after escaping from the facility at around 3.00am local time on Monday (16 October).

The US Marshal, Bibb County Sheriff's Office, Crime Stoppers and the FBI are all offering rewards for information on the inmates, with details leading to their arrest amounting to a total of $73,000.

The Bibb County Sheriff's Office stated that the inmates escaped through a damaged day room window before making their way to a cut fence, though leaked images have now provided a greater insight to how they got out.

Sources speaking to 13WMAZ said a blue Dodge Challenger car brought tools to the jail grounds which allowed the inmates to chisel through the window.

It's currently unclear exactly how the inmates received the tools from the car, though one source claimed a drone was used to deliver a chisel.

The four inmates remain on the run.

Another source told the publication intruders cut through the fences, before putting the tools into bedsheets lowered by the inmates.

Photos sent to the outlet from a person connected to the jail revealed damage both the inside and outside the jail, while spots cut in the fence appear to be in line with the damaged window.

The Bibb County Sheriff's Office has confirmed the photos are legitimate and show the scene of the escape.

Sheriff David Davis has said there were less than 10 people working in the jail at the time of the escape, limiting the checks that could be carried out.

Three officers were on duty in the cell blocks, of which there are seven in total. There was also a corporal working in master control who could not leave their post.

Two people were working in a new part of the jail, and one in the older section where the escape took place. With seven cellblocks in total and three officers in the jail, there were four cell blocks left with no officer supervision for the entire 12-hour shift.

One officer is said to have heard sounds that could have been chiseling, but they didn't have a second officer on hand who could go and check, so instead logged what they heard.

Sheriff David Davis has not yet commented on the claims about the staffing at the time of the escape.

UNILAD has attempted to reach out to Bibb County Sheriff's Office for comment.
