South Australian prison escapee Jason Burdon has been arrested in Adelaide's south after being tracked down by a police helicopter.
Burdon escaped from the kitchen of the Adelaide Remand Centre on Tuesday morning by abseiling out the window on a rope of clothes.
Police say he got away on a stolen electric bicycle.
He later allegedly stole a four-wheel drive from West Lakes Shore.
About 8:00pm tonight, police spotted the same vehicle driving on Marion Road at Sturt, in Adelaide's south. Using a police helicopter, they tracked it to Eden Hills.
The vehicle had allegedly been used in a petrol theft at North Brighton just before 6:00pm, and the driver looked like Burdon.
It is alleged Burdon rammed a police car while trying to escape arrest but no officers were injured.
He was arrested and taken to hospital with minor injuries.
He will face several charges, including escaping lawful custody and multiple traffic offences.
