NEW CASTLE, Ind. (AP) - One of the four men who escaped from the Henry County Jail remains at large Saturday.
     
Four men slipped out of the jail in New Castle, in east central Indiana, early Thursday morning.
     
Two of the men were apprehended about seven hours later. Police responding to an anonymous tip found 33-year-old Ron Wright and 32-year-old Richard Hicks hiding in the basement of an abandoned house. Another man 41-year-old Bryan York of New Castle was apprehended Saturday afternoon in New Castle.
     
Twenty-four-year-old Roscoe Fry of Connersville is still at large. Fry was awaiting trial for robbery.
     
Henry County Sheriff Kim Cronk says they are transferring about 50 inmates out of the jail, so they can repair the shower room and air ducts the men used in their escape.
