An escaped inmate in Houston who was considered “dangerous” has been captured after an hours-long manhunt, authorities said. Joshua Nigel Thomas Sanders, 35, was captured at around 3 a.m. Friday in east Harris County, sheriff’s office Major Saul Suarez said during an early morning news conference. Sanders was taken to a hospital as a precaution and will be transported to the Harris County Jail once he’s medically cleared. The woman wrecked the car outside the Harris County Criminal Justice Center, he added. The sheriff’s office thanked the community for sending tips and said they were able to locate the suspect thanks to efforts from local, state and federal authorities.
