Law enforcement officials in southern Oklahoma apprehended an escaped inmate who stole an FBI vehicle after fighting with an FBI agent and a Bryan County Sheriff's deputy Tuesday afternoon. FBI spokesman Gary Johnson said William A. Newell, 38, was apprehended in Johnston County a few hours after he took the 2003 Ford Explorer and the shotgun inside it. Details of Newell's capture were not immediately available, Johnson said Tuesday evening. Newell took the vehicle at about 3:30 p.m. after a scuffle with an agent and a sheriff's deputy. Officers were alerted to Newell's escape when a citizen told them a man was walking down a Durant street wearing an orange jail jumpsuit. Newell had been held at the Bryan County Jail for auto theft. Johnson says details of his escape weren't immediately known. "The escapee, the vehicle, the shotgun, it's all been located," Johnson said. Bryan County is on the Oklahoma-Texas border. |
