Tyrone McClain Jr. turned himself into the Boone County Jail Saturday morning.

McClaine was one of three inmates who escaped from The Reality House earlier this month.

He was arrested on several warrant violations and unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia and resisting arrest.

According to court documents, all three men - Lawrence Johnson, Jamale E. Marteen and Tyrone McClain Jr. - all left the building into the recreation yard and climbed the barbwire fence and escaped.

After the escape, the Boone County Sheriff's Department removed 20 prisoners from a halfway house and private jail.
