PHILADELPHIA—A task force led by federal marshals recaptured the second of two inmates who escaped from a Pennsylvania prison earlier this month, a man who had been held on charges in four slayings, authorities said.

Ameen Hurst, 18, was rearrested Wednesday morning in Philadelphia, according to Robert Clark, a supervisory deputy with the U.S. Marshals Service. Authorities had been working with the family since Tuesday evening after they called seeking to have Hurst surrender, but several deadlines for that to happen had come and gone, Clark said.
