Florida authorities captured two inmates who escaped a northwest Tennessee.

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

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.

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