TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (AP): Authorities say a survivalist accused of shooting two state troopers in northeastern Pennsylvania spent part of his childhood in western Indiana and attended school there.

Vigo County Chief Deputy Sheriff Clark Cottom says Eric Frein left the Terre Haute area in the mid-1990s, moving to Pennsylvania, and there's no indication he ever returned. He was born in New Jersey.

Cottom tells the Tribune-Star that authorities have no information that would lead them to believe Frein would come back to western Indiana.

Police believe the 31-year-old Frein is hiding in the woods around his parents' home in Pennsylvania. He's accused of killing one trooper and injuring another.

The FBI has named Frein one of its 10 most wanted fugitives.
