DELAWARE COUNTY, Ind. – A man who escaped from the Henry County jail Sunday was found by police Monday.

Thanks to a tip, Delaware County sheriff's deputies arrested 43-year-old Delmar Ray Gabbard who left the jail in New Castle just before 5:30 p.m.

Gabbard was arrested during a traffic stop on I-69 after an investigator driving an unmarked vehicle saw Gabbard leaving a home in Danville.

The man was reportedly trying to get to Indianapolis to hide, police said.
