Police on Thursday arrested two white supremacist gang members - an Idaho prison inmate and the accomplice who helped him escape - following an attack on corrections officers at a Boise hospital, and investigators are looking into whether they killed two people while on the run.
Skylar Meade, the escaped inmate, and Nicholas Umphenour, the man who police say shot two Idaho corrections officers early Wednesday to break Meade out of custody, were arrested during a traffic stop Thursday afternoon in Twin Falls, about 130 miles (209km) from where they escaped.
