More than two weeks after four inmates broke out of a jail in Red Deer, the final escapee has been arrested.

Rocky Mountain House RCMP arrested 28-year-old Dallas Albert Rain at around 12:45 p.m. on Friday.

Rain was the last of four suspects on the loose after they broke out of the Red Deer Remand Centre just after midnight on Tuesday, June 12.

Staff at the correctional facility told the RCMP that the men escaped through a broken window. One of the escapees was arrested very close to the remand centre shortly after he left, but three others were able to get away.
