Bruce Callahan was captured without incident on a Virginia college campus a week after he escaped from jail custody, officials said.
A 44-year-old jail escapee was captured on a Virginia college campus early Monday, officials said.
Bruce Callahan escaped from Piedmont Regional Jail on May 1. Callahan was found at Virginia's Longwood University around 5:30 a.m. Monday, according to the school. He was"injured and in poor health" when he walked onto a campus property and pulled an outdoor fire alarm. Callahan surrendered to police without incident and asked for medical assistance, according to the school. There's no indication that he'd previously been on the campus.
The captured inmate was provided with medical care, Prince Edward County Sheriff L.A."Tony" Epps said. The nature of his injuries was not immediately clear. Callahan was being held on federal drug and weapons charges before his escape from custody. The jail is about three miles away from Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia, about 65 miles west of Richmond., another Piedmont Regional Jail escapee, in Mexico. He was taken into custody on May 4. Marin-Sotelo was charged with murder in the August 2022 killing of a North Carolina sheriff's deputy. Ned Byrd was shot while on duty after he stopped along a dark stretch of road late at night.
