Texas authorities apprehend ‘armed and dangerous’ inmate

An hourslong manhunt is over in Houston, Texas, after authorities apprehended an inmate early Friday morning who escaped during transport from a court appearance on Thursday.

Joshua Nigel Thomas Sanders, 35, was taken into custody at around 3 a.m. Friday, nearly 12 hours after his escape during transport back to the jail at around 3:30 p.m. Thursday, according to the Harris County Sheriff’s Office.

Investigators say Sanders was found at a Houston home believed to belong to a relative and responding officers used a taser against him as he resisted arrest. As he was taken into custody, two others were arrested as well for hindering apprehension, according to Harris County Maj. Saul Suarez.
