DALLAS (AP) — The third of five inmates who escaped from a Texas jail was apprehended Saturday night, authorities said.

Brian Riley, 27, was arrested at a home in Fannin County, about 30 miles east of the jail, Grayson County Sheriff Keith Gary said. Two others were caught Friday at a horse stable.

"There were some folks there who were harboring Riley, and they may face charges themselves," Gary said.

All five inmates had been jailed on various charges including assault, kidnapping and child rape, authorities said.
