NELSONVILLE, Ohio (AP) — A convicted murderer who escaped from an Ohio prison was captured late Monday by a joint law enforcement task force, authorities said. The state Department of Rehabilitation and Correction tweeted around 11:30 p.m. that John Modie, an inmate serving time for the murder of a woman at his home, had been captured in Nelsonville 40 minutes earlier. Modie was reported missing during a Sunday night prisoner count at the Hocking Unit of the Southeastern Correctional Complex in Nelsonville, state prison officials said. Authorities said Monday that a thorough search of the prison confirmed Modie, 58, had escaped. The Pike County sheriff issued a bulletin that said Modie should be considered armed and dangerous. The bulletin said he could be in a gold-colored Jeep Grand Cherokee with two women and might have cuts from razor wire. Read More. |
