LANSING, Kan. (AP) _ Three inmates at the state prison in Lansing could be looking at additional time behind bars -- for
escape.
The three were discovered missing late Saturday morning from a minimum-security unit. Prison spokesman Brett Peterson says a tip from a citizen led to their capture about 12 hours later in Kansas City, Kansas.
Peterson won't say how the inmates got out of the prison in northeast Kansas. Details of their capture -- including whether
shots were fired -- are also being withheld until an investigation is complete.
The escapees were serving terms ranging from 29 to 55 months for a variety of crimes. Charges of escape are expected to be added.
