NORTH VERNON, IN - Southern Kentucky authorities on Tuesday caught the last of four inmates who were on the run for more than a week after police said they smashed a first-floor window to escape from the Jennings County Jail. Jeffrey Boggs and Robert S. Pickett were apprehended during a traffic stop after midnight in Corbin, Ky., about 25 miles north of the Tennessee line, according to the Jennings County Sheriff's Department. The fourth escapee, Gerald Perkins, was caught a short time later about 50 miles away near the town of Corbin, police said. Sheriff's deputies in Indianapolis had arrested escapee David Fields, 36, a day after the April 23 escape. He had been serving time on a burglary conviction. Boggs and Pickett had been jailed on charges of manufacturing methamphetamine. Perkins faces a bench warrant from Jennings County and a felony warrant out of Ohio. All four escaped from the jail in North Vernon, about 50 miles southeast of Indianapolis, by jumping through the window they smashed out with a piece of metal, police said. |
