A man who escaped from the Union City, Oklahoma correctional facility earlier this week was found in Broken Arrow Thursday night.

A Broken Arrow police officer took Robert Schesny into custody while conducting a vehicle check in a hotel parking lot.

According to reports, around 6:45 Thursday morning, the officer noticed a man and woman inside a vehicle parked at a hotel parking lot in the 2600 block of North Aspen Avenue.

The officer conducted a check and said Schesny originally gave a fake name. It wasn't until a second officer arrived that they were able to identify Schesny.

The report says the woman identified herself as Courtney Schesny.

According to the report she had a warrant for her arrest and was charged with possession of a controlled substance and harboring a fugitive.
