INDIANAPOLIS — Police have located and arrested an inmate who escaped from a work detail in Indianapolis Monday morning.

The Department of Corrections says Marion Jaynes walked away from a work detail at Edinburgh Correctional Facility, where he was serving a 20-year sentence for burglary.

Police said he was last seen just before 11 a.m. Monday morning driving a 2006 blue Dodge Dakota near Harding and Lambert streets in Indianapolis.

Just before 4 p.m., IMPD announced that they located and arrested Jaynes at a residence in the 4400 block of W. Vermont St.

The Johnson County prosecutor will decide on any additional charges.
