Washington authorities have now caught both patients who escaped from Western State Hospital, a Lakewood, Wash.-based psychiatric hospital, according to The Seattle Times.
On April 6, Mark Alexander Adams and Anthony Garver escaped from the 800-plus-bed hospital. Police believe they may have left the facility through a loose window.
Mr. Adams was arrested in 2014 on charges of second-degree assault with a domestic violence enhancement, but was found incompetent to stand trial. Police caught him in Des Moines, Wash., on the afternoon of April 7.
Mr. Garver was arrested in 2013 for using electrical cords to tie up a 20-year-old woman and subsequently stabbing her 24 times. He too was found incompetent to stand trial. Police found him near his parents' home in Spokane, Wash., on the evening of Friday, April 8. Authorities utilized the help of a law enforcement dog named Gunnar to locate Mr. Garver, who was hiding under a pile of debris in a forest.
"I feel outstanding that none of my citizens" were injured, said Spokane County Sheriff Ozzie Knezovich in a news conference, according to the report. "The state of Washington needs to figure out how to keep [Mr. Garver] from escaping."
According to the report, police believe Mr. Garver utilized a bus company to travel from Lakewood to Seattle, where he purchased a Greyhound ticket to Spokane.
Mr. Garver's parents — who investigators said were cooperative in the search — called police on the afternoon of April 8, claiming their son had paid them a visit. "His father stepped out of the room and made a call to us and then stepped back into the room, and that kind of spooked Garver," said Mark Gregory, Spokane sheriff's spokesman deputy, according to the report. "During that time, [Mr. Garver] said he wanted his passport and said that he wanted to travel to Morocco."
As of the evening of April 8, Mr. Garver had been arrested and was being treated for dehydration and hunger, according to ABC News.
This isn't the first time Mr. Garver been involved with law enforcement. Police said he's "possessed military-style weapons and explosives" and has "threatened mass shootings," according to the report.
