PORT ANGELES — A 24-year-old Sequim man who escaped from the Clallam County Sheriff’s Chain Gang on Thursday afternoon was recaptured following a two-hour search that included a police dog and a Coast Guard helicopter.

Trevor Christopher Glavin is being held without bail in the Clallam County jail.

He now faces a second degree escape charge, a Class C felony, in addition to a probation violation for which he already was serving 90 days.

Glavin also was being held on bail on charges of second-degree arson and first-degree reckless burning.

Glavin was the first inmate to escape from the Sheriff’s Chain Gang in its 10-year history.
