Provincial police in Quebec have captured the three inmates, who escaped from a Quebec city-area prison by helicopter two weeks ago.

They were arrested early this morning at a Montreal residence.

Police are not saying how they finally found the fugitives.

The trio – aged 35, 49 and 53 – were awaiting trial on charges including gangsterism and murder when a chopper plucked them from the prison courtyard June 7th.

Shortly after their breakout, it was revealed, the day before they escaped, a judge had loosened restrictions on them.

Their escape set off a worldwide manhunt.

They were added to the Interpol red notice list, placing them among the most wanted in the world.
