US marshals captured 23-year-old Matthew Putnam and 27-year-old Robert Crum at 1:45 p.m. yesterday at a residence in Cabell County.
Putnam and Crum escaped from the minimum security Ohio County Correctional Center in Wheeling on Monday, by breaking a lock in a kitchen and scaling a fence.
Putnam and his brother robbed a Burnsville bank, and then attempted to escape on their 4-wheeler.
Putnam was sentenced from Braxton County and was being held for a parole violation on a conspiracy to commit grand larceny conviction.
Both inmates are now facing new felony charges related to their escape.
Putnam was scheduled to go before a parole board in May.
