Police say two inmates who escaped from a Gravenhurst prison have been found. According to police, two inmates, were unaccounted for during a routine head count that was conducted Wednesday. Staff were unable to locate 68-year-old Michael Karas and 70-year-old Jay Sedore. Police say Sedore has ties to Gravenhurst, and is currently serving an indeterminate sentence for first-degree murder. The two men were found in a hotel in the GTA around 8 p.m. on Thursday. The Muskoka Crime Unit, the Repeat Offender Parole Enforcement Squad and Toronto Police worked together to locate the criminals. A spokesperson with Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) said inmate escapes from federal institutions are “rare,” noting the agency would be investigating the circumstances surrounding Wednesday’s escape. Beaver Creek Institution is a minimum and medium security federal prison run by CSC. It houses adult male inmates serving federal prison sentences.
