BRICKEYS, Ark. (AP) _ A convicted killer who disappeared from an Arkansas
prison has been found hiding on its roof.

Arkansas Department of Corrections spokeswoman Dina Tyler says authorities
found inmate Calvin Adams on Tuesday hiding underneath a large ventilation hood
on the roof of the East Arkansas Regional Unit in Brickeys, about 110 miles (177
kilometers) east of Little Rock.

Tyler says Adams had apparently been hiding on the roof since he went missing
early Monday. She says he managed to climb onto the roof but was stranded
because there was nowhere else to go.

She says he will be moved to a maximum security area of the prison.

Adams is serving a life sentence without parole for a 1994 killing.
