RICHMOND, Ind. -- A man accused in a violent home invasion in Franklin after slipping out of a hospital earlier this week was arrested on Saturday. 

Richmond police arrested Reese Keith, 27, at an abandoned home sometime Saturday afternoon. He was unarmed and taken into custody without incident. 

Keith walked out the front door of Johnson Memorial Hospital last Monday after a series of medical episodes while in police custody. 

Police say he then robbed an elderly couple at gunpoint in their home and tied them up.

Keith has been on the run since then. 

This is a developing story and will be updated with more information as it becomes available.
