Apples, spry monkeys, fresh air, falling blossoms—we associate the treetops with only the best things in life, but what if our nation’s leafy canopies are also holding two murderous fugitives? A Gawker reader thinks that cops need to start looking up.

Cops are having a lot of trouble finding these two bad boys—could it be because they’re looking down at the Earth for clues, rather than skyward? Is the investigation missing a little bushy-tailed conventional squirrel wisdom? We received this tip in our email inbox (tips@gawker.com!) earlier today, and have have been unable to confirm its claims:

THE ONLY PLACE THE 2 ESCAPED CONVICTS COULD BE IS IN A TREE HOUSE STOCKED WITH PROVISIONS. AT THIS TIME OF YEAR THE DENSITY OF THE TREES COULD HIDE ANYTHING.
