A white supremacist prison gang member and his accomplice are in police custody after being on the run in Idaho.
On Thursday, Idaho officials said that Skylar Meade, 31, and Nicholas Umphenour, 28, were arrested in Twin Falls – about 130 miles (209km) from where they escaped.
According to local reports citing police, Meade is a member of the Aryan Knights, a prison gang white supremacy group based primarily in Idaho. Pictures released by the police showed Meade’s tattoos including an A and a K on his stomach.
The pair’s arrest comes after Umphenour, police said, staged an attack on Idaho corrections department officers on Wednesday as they were transporting Meade back to prison from a hospital in Boise. Meade was being treated for for “self-injurious” wounds to his face and body, said corrections department director Josh Tewalt.
