LA GRANGE, Texas -- An inmate who escaped from the Fayette County Jail and was accused of kidnapping a man was captured at a Houston motel, KPRC Local 2 reported.

Sheriff Keith Korenek said 44-year-old Patrick Scott Bigelow took keys from a female correctional officer on Sunday and got out of the jail. Investigators said Bigelow had outside help and a getaway car.

Waller County sheriff's deputies said Bigelow kidnapped a man at a Fayette County convenience store at about 6 a.m. Monday. The kidnap victim was tied to a tree in the Hempstead area, and managed to escape and get help about two hours later, officials said.

Investigators said Bigelow was captured at a north Houston motel along Interstate 45 near Tidwell Boulevard Monday afternoon.

Bigelow, who is from the Katy area, was being held on robbery charges.
