GOULD, Arkansas — On June 6, the nearly two-week long manhunt for escaped Arkansas prisoner Grant Hardin ended. Hardin had escaped from the North Central Unit in Calico Rock on May 25 while serving sentences for murder and rape. He was found by Arkansas law enforcement and U.S. Border Patrol just over a mile from the prison.

Hardin escaped the North Central Unit in Calico Rock on Sunday, May 25, in broad daylight, according to ADC. His escape unsettled communities across the state due to his intense criminal history involving rape and murder. Hardin was also a former police chief and had an extensive background in law enforcement.

Escaped inmate Grant Hardin was captured shortly after 3 p.m. on Friday, a mile and a half west of the North Central Unit where he was being held.
