MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Authorities say two inmates who escaped a northwest Tennessee prison have been found in Florida.

The Tennessee Department of Correction says law enforcement officers arrested Robert Brown and Christopher Osteen in Pompano Beach, Florida, on Sunday.

They escaped Friday from Northwest Correctional Complex in Lake County, Tennessee. Authorities say the escapees kidnapped a Kentucky highway employee and took his truck after their escape. They also are accused of stealing a different truck from a resident of Henry County, Tennessee. That truck was found Sunday in Florida.

Brown is serving an 18-year sentence for aggravated rape and Osteen is serving an eight-year sentence for burglary.
