Two men who escaped from an Oklahoma prison last week were captured Wednesday in Mississippi, officials said.

Daniel A. Kelly, 44, and Ronnie Ray White, 48, were arrested Saturday afternoon in Brandon, Miss., state Corrections Department spokesman Jerry Massie said this morning. The pair escaped Jan. 24 from the James Crabtree Correctional Center, a minimum-security facility in Helena. The men left the lock-up in an agricultural services pickup.

The pickup still has not been recovered, Massie said. Kelly and White were in a stolen sport utility vehicle when they were caught, but Massie said he didn’t know further details about the arrest.
