Missing SD Inmate Recaptured in Missouri

A missing South Dakota prison inmate has been found and arrested in Missouri.

The Yankton County Sheriff's Office says 37-year-old Ricky Jankord was arrested Monday morning at a motel in Marysville, Mo., after authorities tracked him down through a vehicle belonging to his wife.

Jankord walked away from the minimum-security facility in Yankton on Sunday. He was serving five years on a grand theft conviction out of Pennington County.
