Escaped killer left behind the most bizarre apology note while on the run

Your browser does not support the video tag. A Tennessee prisoner who escaped while serving a life sentence for murder was caught on Tuesday near Kansas City , Missouri , after more than a week on the run. Jacob Morley, 28, was tracked down with the help of roadside cameras and a helicopter, and his truck became stuck in the mud, authorities said. Two rifles and a shotgun were recovered from the vehicle. On Wednesday, investigators were still working out how Morley managed to avoid capture for so long before being found hundreds of miles from the prison. Morley was serving his sentence for killing a co-worker four years ago. Authorities believe that in the days after his escape, he made his way to a farm near Marion, Illinois , roughly 127 miles (204 kilometers) away. He spent time in a shed on the property that hunters used periodically. Williamson County Sheriff Jeff Diederich said investigators found evidence that Morley drank beer and prepared garlic bread and other food at the farm. He also left behind a handwritten note apologizing after taking a truck from the property, the sheriff said. This photo provided by the Missouri State Highway Patrol shows
