The two remaining escapees from a jail break in southern California have been captured in San Francisco, police announced Saturday.

The two -- identified as Hossein Nayeri, 37, and Jonathan Tieu, 20 -- were arrested after a passerby recognized their white van as the one authorities said had been stolen following the dramatic jail break last week in Santa Ana, near Los Angeles.

Orange County Sheriff Sandra Hutchens told reporters that Nayeri ran from the van, which was in the parking lot of a Whole Foods grocery store near Golden Gate Park, as police approached.

Nayeri was arrested following a short foot chase, and Tieu was then captured when police returned to the van.

2. They should have gone to Vallejo instead. They could have lived

a quiet peaceful life for years without anyone caring or noticing.
