TICKFAW — The Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff’s Office says the work release inmate, who walked off a job site, is now back in custody.
He was captured overnight and details of his capture have not been released.
Donald Ray Wilson, 42, walked off a job site in the 51000 block of Highway 51 in Tickfaw on Thursday.
TPSO says Wilson is serving time for a parole violation for being in possession of a firearm as a convicted felon and is from the Tickfaw area.
Officials say Wilson is in a program that allows select inmates to work jobs with partner businesses outside of the jail.
Details of exactly where Wilson was found are expected to be released later on Friday morning.
