OLATHE, Kan. (AP) — The second of two men who escaped from a southeast Kansas county jail is back in custody.
Crawford County Sheriff Dan Peak announced Monday that Shaun Steven Simpson was arrested without incident while walking in a neighborhood in Olathe.
Simpson and Steven Barnes climbed over a fence at the county jail’s outdoor recreation area in Girard on April 23. Barnes was recaptured Saturday at a Pittsburg motel. The vehicle the men used to escape was found at an apartment complex in Olathe.
Peak said the two will likely be charged with escape from custody and other charges. And he expects charges against others who helped the men after their escape.
Simpson’s mother, Marlene Louise McAfee, of Arma, is charged with helping the two escape.
