A man who escaped custody in Saskatchewan while on a temporary escorted absence over a year ago has been captured. Allan Roderick Wright was apprehended by Calgary police Wednesday evening.
Wright had been at large since December 2014 when he escaped while on the Moosomin First Nation during his escorted temporary absence from Willow Cree Healing Lodge.
He was serving a three-year five-month sentence at the time for assault with a weapon, assault causing bodily harm, break and enter, and forcible confinement.
Corrections Service of Canada officials say they will be conducting an investigation into Wright’s escape.
