An inmate who escaped while on work release in Cumberland County has been recaptured. William Rosner, aged 46, was apprehended and taken back into custody, according to officials.

Reported first by ABC27, Rosner was returned to Cumberland County Prison around 9 p.m. Thursday. The county spokesperson stated that he is being held without bail, and faces a new charge of escape, a misdemeanor offense, adding to the tensions of an already knotted legal situation.

Further details provided by Local 21 News indicate that Rosner was apprehended by the Mt. Holly Springs Police Department. The escape charge against Rosner ensures that he will not be granted bail this time around.

The Sheriff's office detailed that Rosner, who originated from the prison at 9:45 a.m. Monday with a work release pass to buy clothes for his assignment, did not return as he was supposed. According to a news release obtained by WGAL, Rosner is serving a six-month sentence for a domestic relations warrant.

He was arraigned on the escape charges shortly after being brought back to the prison.
