Tosefta for Numbers 35:27

וּמָצָ֤א אֹתוֹ֙ גֹּאֵ֣ל הַדָּ֔ם מִח֕וּץ לִגְב֖וּל עִ֣יר מִקְלָט֑וֹ וְרָצַ֞ח גֹּאֵ֤ל הַדָּם֙ אֶת־הָ֣רֹצֵ֔חַ אֵ֥ין ל֖וֹ דָּֽם׃

and the avenger of blood find him without the border of his city of refuge, and the avenger of blood slay the manslayer; there shall be no bloodguiltiness for him;

Tosefta Terumot

The slave of a Kohen who escaped, or the wife of a Kohen who rebelled, behold, they may [nonetheless] eat terumah. And the [inadvertent] killer may not go outside the border of his sanctuary city (Num. 35:27) due to the presumption that that the High Priest is still alive.
