An inmate has been caught a day after escaping the Huntington Work Release Center. 38-year-old Jeffrey S. Spencer was captured early Sunday by police in Lawrence County, Ohio. He was being held in the Lawrence County Jail pending an extradition proceeding Monday. Spencer scaled a wall at the back lot of the Huntington facility on Saturday. Correctional Officer Dixie Keesee says Spencer was serving time for conspiracy, breaking and entering and receiving stolen goods.
