Escaped Alabama Inmate Captured, Prison Guard Shot Herself
The alleged murderer who escaped from prison late last month and the guard who allegedly helped him have been cornered and captured in an Indiana cornfield … according to FOX59 in Indianapolis.
It went down Monday afternoon in Evansville, when police tracked down a pickup truck Casey White and Vicky White were driving — a 2006 Ford F-150. The pair apparently fled to a nearby cornfield where cops surrounded them.
There was a single gunshot and according to WAAY TV in Huntsville, Alabama, Vicky took a gun and shot herself. The station says she’s been taken to a hospital and her condition is unknown.

As for Casey White, he’s also in custody and there are unconfirmed reports he too was shot, although it’s not clear if it was his own gun or someone else’s.
As we reported, Casey White, who was in custody on a murder charge, escaped from an Alabama detention center with the help of Vicky White, who drove him away under false pretenses. Authorities say the 2 were involved in a relationship.
There was a massive manhunt over the last few weeks and the break in the case came last Tuesday when someone spotted Casey White at a Evansville carwash. Police then focused their search in that area, which eventually led them to the corn field.
