TL;DR Summary

Arkansas authorities captured Jatonia Bryant, a capital murder suspect who had escaped from a local jail with another inmate, ending a weeklong manhunt. Bryant, 23, was arrested in Pine Bluff, Ark., after officers saw him walking down a street wearing clothes that matched a description provided by law enforcement. The other escapee, Noah Roush, was caught last week. Both men had fled the jail by making a hole in the ceiling and roof, and escape charges are pending against them. The authorities also revealed that the jail staff had failed to take an accurate head count, and the sheriff suggested flaws in the jail's design and structure allowed the escape.
