Georgia authorities have captured a prison escapee who was initially arrested for burglary, drug possession and other crimes on Feb. 2, and then allegedly made a break for it Tuesday while hospitalized.

"Inmate Brandi Marie Cannon was being treated at the hospital after she informed officers that she swallowed drugs prior to being taken to the jail," the Clayton County Sheriff's Office said in a Tuesday press release. "She was able to slip her cuffs and pull the fire alarm to escape."

The sheriff's office issued an update on Wednesday saying deputies found and apprehended Cannon in Forest Park. 

Cannon is now charged with two counts of theft, two counts of obstructing law enforcement officers, identity fraud, giving a false name, possession of tools during a crime, possession of marijuana and a controlled substance, two counts of burglary, two counts of entering an automobile, false fire alarm and escape, according to county records.
