The convicted killer of three Ohio students has been captured after escaping a US prison with two other men.
T.J Lane, 19, escaped from a Lima prison along with two other inmates.
Police earlier had managed to capture another of the escapee's before narrowing in on Lane who was reportedly found in woods and a residential area near the prison and armed with a pitchfork.
The other prisoner, Clifford E. Opperud, remains on the run and is considered dangerous but police do not believe him to be armed.
Lane pleaded guilty last year to shooting three students in a cafeteria, east of Cleveland.
He is serving three life sentences.
