UPDATE: 3 of 4 escapees from Ohio jail arrested in North Carolina
CARY, N.C. — Three of four inmates who overpowered two female corrections officers and escaped from an Ohio county jail were caught in North Carolina after slightly more than a day on the run, authorities in both states said.
The fourth man, Lawrence R. Lee III, 29, is believed to have accompanied the other three, but he fled from authorities at the time of the arrests, a release from Gallia County Sheriff Matt Champlin said. Cary police said Lee is"not believed to be a danger" but warned the public not to approach him. Champlin has said authorities believe the escaped inmates had help from at least one person outside the jail. The four inmates overpowered the two officers with a homemade weapon, forced open a secure door, entered the jail's administrative wing and stole keys to a corrections officer's vehicle and drove it about a block away, where another vehicle awaited them, Champlin said.
