ATLANTA — Two of four inmates who escaped from a Georgia jail last month are back in custody.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office confirmed to Channel 2 Action News that Marc Anderson, 25, was arrested in Fulton County on Friday afternoon.

Anderson escaped from the Bibb County Jail where he was being held on aggravated assault charges. It’s unclear what new charges he may face.

The Bibb County Sheriff’s Office says the arrest happened just before 3 p.m. at the Huntley Apartments, a high-rise building on Park Avenue in Atlanta.

Deputies say they also arrested a woman, 32-year-old Tymesha Timley, for hindering Anderson’s arrest. She was taken into custody around 10 a.m. just outside of Macon, Ga.

Timley is charged with hindering the apprehension of a criminal and aiding or permitting another to escape lawful custody and is being held in the Bibb County Jail.

The four inmates escaped around 3 a.m. on Oct. 16. The men hopped in a blue Dodge Charger and sped off.

The getaway car was found abandoned days later and said to be a rental car from Enterprise Rent-A-Car.
