Inmate carjacks woman in Home Depot parking lot after prison escape

California authorities have captured an inmate who escaped from San Quentin and went on the run for four days.



Shalom Mendoza, 21, was taken into custody at a Taco Bell in Paso Robles, more than 200 miles southeast of the prison, on Saturday after receiving a tip from a member of the public.



Mendoza had ditched his prison outfit and was wearing dark clothing at the time he was apprehended.



He's suspected of carjacking a vehicle after fleeing a minimum-security work assignment outside the prison walls.
