A convict who escaped from custody in a Barrio Logan halfway house last week was captured Tuesday, authorities reported.

Personnel with the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation took Nick A. Lopez, 51, into custody at a trolley station on Palm Street near San Diego International Airport at about 12:30 p.m. Tuesday, according to the state.

    Lopez disappeared from the Male Community Reentry Program center Friday after allegedly removing a GPS tracking device he is required to wear. He will be re-admitted to state prison, and his case will be referred to the San Diego County District Attorney’s Office for consideration of escape charges, corrections officials said.

    Lopez had been housed at the facility in the 2700 block of Boston Avenue since March 4. He had been sentenced in September 2023 to three years and eight months in prison for drug and weapons offenses committed while on bail, according to corrections officials.

    The reentry system allows eligible offenders to serve the end of their sentences in a community-based center to assist them in transitioning out of prison.
