An inmate was captured after briefly escaping his cell Sunday at the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola.

Roy McLaughlin was serving a life sentence for killing his wife in East Baton Rouge Parish.

He was recaptured by guards within 15 minutes of scaling a razor wire covered fence.

Tonight on News 2 at 6 p.m., Luke Margolis explains how McLaughlin was able to break free.
