Cops locate second teen who escaped Falkenburg Academy

The second of two teens who escaped from the Falkenburg Academy late last month has been found.

The St. Petersburg Police Department says a tip led officers to a home in the 300 block of Northeast Avenue North Tuesday morning, where they found 17-year-old Anthony Cook and took him into custody.

Officials had been searching for Cook since he and another teen, 18-year-old Anthony Bays, escaped from the Falkenburg Academy on January 31.

Both teens were there on Grand Theft Auto charges when they managed to escape through a hole in a fence during recreation time and flee the area.
