T.J. Lane, a remorseless killer who escaped from an Ohio prison where he was serving three life sentences for a school shooting, has been captured. For six long hours, police scoured neighborhoods on the north end of Lima, Ohio, asking residents to lock their doors and stay inside. They brought in extra officers and provided patrols to the families of Lane's victims. In the end, he was found 100 yards away outside a church, the prison warden said. He did n't say anything, nor did he put up a fight, authorities said. Lane was serving consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole for his attack at Chardon High School on February 27, 2012. He walked in to the school cafeteria with a.22 - caliber gun and randomly started shooting. He fired 10 rounds, killing three students. The 19-year-old scaled a fence at the Allen Oakwood Correctional Institution in Lima, about 90 miles northwest of Columbus, Warden Kevin Jones said. He was n't in the maximum-security facility. That is something we have to sit down and take a look at. Lane escaped, along with two other men, about 7:40 p.m. Thursday. He was back in custody about shortly after 1 a.m. Friday.
