ARKWRIGHT, N.Y. (WIVB) - A prisoner who spent nearly five years on the run will be heading back to jail.

Joseph Chapman pleaded guilty to escape on Thursday. Back in 2007, Chapman walked away from the McKean County Jail while on work detail. A woman saw Chapman's picture on "America's Most Wanted" and called the police, who tracked him down at his Arkwright home.

Chapman was serving time for a parole violation involving a child sexual assault case.
