Police in the Eastern Cape have arrested a third prisoner who escaped from custody in Makhanda last week.
Police Spokesperson Warrant Officer Majola Nkohli says Trymore Chauke was allegedly asking people for food in the farming community of Seven Fountains on Sunday and the tracking team responded.
He says within 30 minutes Chauke was arrested.
Police are urging the public to be alert about any suspicious people in their neighbourhood as four of these dangerous prisoners are still on the run.
The convicted rhino poachers escaped in the early hours of the 18th of October.
WO Nkohli says a day after the escape, they re-arrested one suspect, Bennet Kwarrie, in Bloemfontein, while another was nabbed hiding in the bushes.
The circumstances around the escape is being investigated by the Department of Correctional Services.
