An Oahu inmate who did not come back from a work furlough pass has been caught, ending a short manhunt on the island.

• Jonie Popa, 46, missed his Friday night deadline to return to custody and was declared an escapee soon after.
• Police searched overnight and arrested him Saturday afternoon in the Pearl Ridge area.
• He is serving time for first-degree assault on a law enforcement officer.
• The case is another test of Hawaii's work furlough program, which lets some inmates leave custody during the day.

Outlook: Popa faces added escape-related consequences, and the lapse may bring more scrutiny of who qualifies for furlough passes.
