Law enforcement have captured a wanted inmate who escaped from the Lincoln Correctional Center last Friday. Officials took 52-year-old Timothy Clausen into custody at a residence at 3226 North 26th Avenue Wednesday evening.

The Nebraska State Patrol, Omaha Police Department, Douglas County Sheriff’s, U.S. Marshal’s Service and the Metro Fugitive Task Force took Clausen into custody without incident. NSP officials said a handgun was located near Clausen when he was arrested.

Clausen had changed his appearance, cut his hair, shaved his beard and changed his clothing.

“Clausen’s arrest is the culmination of a lot of hard work and long hours by law enforcement from multiple agencies,” said Colonel Brad Rice, Superintendent of the Nebraska State Patrol. “Our citizens were also a valuable resource and we would like to thank each and every one of them who called to provide a tip or information.”

The inmate who escaped with Clausen was captured Saturday afternoon. Armon Dixon was taken into custody in Lincoln. Wanda Minor of Omaha was taken into custody for aiding and abetting Clausen. No other details were released.

Dixon and Clausen were discovered missing Friday afternoon. A head count completed at 12:30 p.m. confirmed neither was present. It is unclear when they escaped. Police said Saturday the two escaped in a truck, but would not elaborate.

Court records indicate that officials believe Dixon and Clausen hid in laundry truck that left the Lincoln Correctional Center at 9:15 a.m. bound for another state prison in Tecumseh. The documents say a 911 caller reported seeing two men dressed as inmates running in an area where the truck stopped at an intersection. Authorities later discovered a hole in the truck's roof.

The two allegedly later stole a van, crashed at U.S. 77 and Warlick Boulevard at 9:30 a.m. and ran from the scene. While the Lancaster County Sheriff's Office acknowledged that the pair appeared to be dressed in clothing similar to Department of Corrections inmate wear, at the time neither the Department of Corrections or Lancaster County Corrections were aware any inmates were missing.

Clausen was serving 51 years for first-degree sexual assault of a child in Omaha and tampering with a juror. He also has previous convictions of manslaughter for killing a man in Omaha in 1992 and had successfully escaped form jail twice before.
