The inmate mistakenly released from the Montgomery County jail last week has been apprehended.
The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office sent out an alert Friday in search of Edward Manning, 30, who had been released in place of another inmate with the same last name. A tip through Crime Stoppers led to Manning being apprehended without incident by the SWAT along with the Violent Offender Task Force at an apartment complex in the 5300 block of Coke Street in northeast Houston.

Manning was being held on felony assault against a family member. Deputies had contacted him by cell phone but he refused to turn himself in. He was eligible to be released on bond for $20,000.
Montgomery County Sheriff's Office Lt. Scott Spencer attributed Manning's release to "human error," saying the incident is under review and investigation to see how to prevent this from happening again. Spencer said the district attorney's office will determine whether additional charges will be filed against Manning.
