Prison escapees caught near border after dramatic Omaha jailbreak
Three convicts escaped from Douglas County jail in Omaha by sliding down braided sheets and stealing a plane, then fled 600 miles north before being captured near the Minnesota border. Two of the escapees are murderers. The plane was found near Pem bina, N D, and the men were found by Border Patrol agents along a river road near St Vincent, Minnesota, about 17 hours after the escape. They cooperated, were unarmed, and were taken back to Omaha for processing. Sheriff Janing suggested possible inside help and planned lie detector tests for deputies.
