The inmate who escaped from an Idaho prison and his suspected accomplice who shot corrections officers in Boise and set off a manhunt were taken into custody in Idaho on Thursday, authorities said. The two suspects — Skylar Meade and Nicholas Umphenour — were arrested in Twin Falls, Idaho, around 2 p.m. after a lengthy investigation and a short car chase, Boise police Chief Ron Winegar said.
Two of the officers were shot — one faced non-life-threatening injuries while the other was stable in critical condition following the shooting. The pair then fled the scene, prompting the police search. Boise officers also responded to reports of an active shooter at the hospital, which was placed on a modified lockdown at the time of the incident, according to the police department.
