According to the Kansas Department of Corrections, Michael Stroede walked away from the minimum-security unit at the prison Tuesday.

A KDOC release said Stroede was taken into custody Thursday morning by officials from the Kansas City, Kansas Police Department.  He was arrested on the KDOC escape warrant without incident.

Stroede had been serving a more than 9 year prison sentence for a drug conviction in Rice County in 2021.  Stroede’s sentence was set to end in October 2027, but he may face additional charges related to this week’s escape.
