The last two inmates who escaped through the ceiling in the shower of the Caddo County Jail in Anadarko , Oklahoma , last month have been captured , Caddo County Sheriff Gene Cain told CNN on Tuesday . James Mendonca and Triston Cheadle were taken into custody without incident at a private home in Anadarko , he said . Sheriff 's deputies acted on a tip received Tuesday morning . Two other escaped inmates were caught last month . Dylan Ray Three Irons and Prime Brown were taken into custody in Chickasha , Oklahoma , the sheriff said , less than 20 miles away from the jail . News of the capture first surfaced on Twitter . The four inmates made a clean getaway October 27 after prying open a maintenance hatch in their shower -- the first escape from the 2-year-old Caddo County jail , Cain said . They broke a lock on the hatch above the shower head , Cain told CNN affiliate KFOR-TV , and then moved through a crawl space until they reached a wall , where they knocked out concrete block or two . That got them to an unlocked door outside the jail area , Cain explained . They apparently kept their clothes on in the shower . Four orange inmate uniforms were found outside the jail , CNN affiliate KOCO-TV reported . Three of the men -- Three Irons , Brown and Mendonca -- had been convicted of methamphetamine offenses and were awaiting transfer to a state prison . The fourth escapee , Cheadle , was awaiting trial on a federal gun charge , KOCO-TV reported .
The two prisoners were taken into custody without incident , sheriff says . Inmates broke lock above , to clear space , then broke through again . It was the first escape from the 2-year - old Wayne County prisoner .
