BALTIMORE, Md. (WTXF) - An escaped prisoner from Cumberland County has been captured in Baltimore, Maryland.

Thirty-four-year-old David Riley, of Bridgeton City, New Jersey, fled from New Jersey to Baltimore after escaping from the custody of Cumberland County Department of Corrections officers on Friday.

Authorities say Riley was apprehended Saturday afternoon by U.S. Marshals at a bus terminal in Baltimore.

Riley was lodged in the Baltimore City detention center where he awaits extradition to New Jersey.

Investigators say Riley's father, 48-year-old David Carty, drove him to Baltimore and bought him a bus ticket to Atlanta, Georgia.

Troopers located and arrested Carty at a motel in Vineland. He was charged with hindering apprehension, obstruction of justice, and aiding another in an escape. He is currently lodged in Cumberland County Jail where he awaits a bail detention hearing.
