Two prison escapees from Utah have been arrested in Lincoln. The Lancaster County Sheriff's Office says around 9 a.m., 31-year-old Dallas Derrick and 21-year-old Jason Braham were spotted walking away from an abandoned Buick near the Harris overpass.

They say when approached, the two men told deputies they'd escaped from prison Wednesday, then for the next days, stole cars with keys inside them along I-80 and drove until they ran out of gas.

The men each face several charges.
