Kentucky State Police say an escaped inmate was found riding as a passenger in a car stopped by police. A trooper pulled over a vehicle in Central City late yesterday afternoon and arrested Anthony Hunt, who was taken into custody without incident. Hunt was charged with second-degree jail escape. Muhlenberg County authorities said the 27-year-old walked away from the county Opportunity Center Monday while on work release. Following his capture, Hunt was taken to the Muhlenberg County Detention Center.
