An Oklahoma prison escapee captured in Kingman County in March was sentenced Thursday to 53 months in federal prison for unlawfully possessing a firearm after a felony conviction, U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom said. Lance D. Colbert, 40, was arrested in Spivey, Kan., with a .38-caliber Smith and Wesson revolver in his pants pocket, just days after fleeing from Mack Alford Correctional Center in Stringtown, Okla., Grissom said. A deputy with the U.S. Marshals Service in Wichita caught Colbert on March 11 after spotting him in a vehicle parked on the shoulder of a highway, according to federal court records. He and another inmate escaped the prison through a hole in a fence sometime after being let out of their cells to attend an evening church service on March 8, Oklahoma Department of Corrections spokesman Alex Gerszewski said. They were discovered missing about 12 hours later. Read More. |
