Khalid Rahman, 48, spent a week on the run.
Arizona Daily Star A Pima County jail inmate who escaped from the facility a week ago was captured Monday, officials said.
Officials said Rahman escaped after corrections officers confused him with another inmate who was due to be released from the jail. Deputies were told that Rahman had walked out of the jail after corrections officers confused him with another inmate with similar physical characteristics, a news release from the sheriff’s department said. Corrections officers called the names of inmates to be released after court and Rahman misrepresented himself as the inmate who was to be released.
Last month, another inmate had escaped the jail. Oscar Alday, 43, walked out of the facility while arrestees were being released from custody. He has yet to be found.
