When the person/animal/thing is free but restricted to a certain area, then maybe on the loose is more likely - eg:
2. More than 100 prisoners are still ON THE LOOSE in 5 wings of the jail

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' here?
Thank you for your reply.
