Sheriff’s Office Lt. Scott Spencer said the transport vehicle stopped for food and Marks used the opportunity to escape, KHOU CBS11 reported on Sunday morning.

Marks is wanted in connection to the murder of his ex-girlfriend Jenna Scott and her friend Michael Swearingin. He has not officially been charged in the deaths. The two people disappeared on January 4 and their bodies were found in Oklahoma 11 days later.

Kent County, Michigan, officials turned Marks over to U.S. Prisoner Transportation on Thursday morning for extradition to Texas, the CBS affiliate reported.

Marks is currently charged with burglary of a habitation with the intent to commit another felony after he allegedly broke into Scott’s home in August, the Temple Daily News reported. The alleged burglary followed his arrest for violation of a protective order.

Another Marks ex-girlfriend is also missing. April Pease, the mother of Marks’ son, disappeared on March 17, 2009, the local newspaper reported.
