Darnell Washington, 24, and his wife, Tania, 25, are on the run after Tania helped her husband escape from Glen Helen Rehabilitation Center in Devore, California.

After breaking free, the criminal minded couple stopped at a 7-11 convenience store. Something about them struck a sheriff’s deputy as “suspicious,” so he ran their plates and discovered they were listed as “armed and dangerous.”

That’s when the situation escalated.

The deputy called for backup and confronted Washington and his wife when they exited the store, prompting the gun battle.

Authorities say Washington emerged from the rear of the vehicle exchanged gunfire with the deputy, wounding him.

The couple then fled after allegedly carjacking another vehicle.

Washington and his wife later abandoned the stolen vehicle in South Gate before carjacking another vehicle.

The deputy was air-lifted to a hospital with non-life threatening injuries and the 2012 Bonnie and Clyde are still on the run.
