After a brief taste of freedom an escaped inmate is back in custody.

Christopher Spark escaped from Riverbend Institution, a minimum security facility in Prince Albert, sometime around 9 p.m. Tuesday evening with the help of two other people.

A few hours later they were spotted driving toward Saskatoon on Highway 41.

A road block was set up and the trio was arrested outside Saskatoon city limits.
