Hickory, Oct. 25—Search was being made over two states today for Glen Holland, of near Hickory, charged with the slaying here yesterday of Paul Donkel, 23-year-old lineman.
Holland escaped in an automobile toward South Mountains. Authorities believed that he made his way into South Carolina, and authorities there have been notified of his escape.
Donkel was shot and killed when he and Holland met in a café near here, according to eye witnesses. A grudge of long standing was said to have existed between the two men.
A posse of deputy sheriffs early today was scouring the mountains along the South Carolina border, in the belief that the fugitive had not made his way out of the mountainous territory.
Meanwhile, officers at larger South Carolina cities were on the watch for Holland, at the request of North Carolina authorities.
