Hi susan,
I don't understand what you mean here?
Do you mean a suspect who can't be found by the police is on the loose but not at large or on the run?
Many thanks.

Hi susan,
What does this sentence above mean? Does it mean those prisoners escaped from the jail and still can't be found?
Can I use 'at large' or 'on the run' instead of 'on the loose'...

Hi susan,
Can I use 'on the run' in the context above because the police don't have the proof necessary they need to arrest him?
