Hossein Nayeri, 37, and Jonathan Tieu, 20, were arrested just before 9 a.m. in the city’s Haight Ashbury district, more than 400 miles north of the maximum-security Orange County jail they broke out of last week, officials said.

“The entire state can breathe a sigh of relief,” Orange County Sheriff Sandra Hutchens said at a Saturday press conference. “We have the other two individuals back in custody where they should be.”

A third escapee, 43-year-old Bac Duong, turned himself in Friday just a few miles away from the Orange County Men’s Central Jail in Santa Ana.

Nayeri and Tieu were arrested after a civilian spotted their white van — which they had stolen just after the jailbreak — parked in front of a Whole Foods. The woman notified nearby cops, who were responding to an unrelated call, Hutchens said.

Since opening his first store in Austin, Texas in 1980, Mackey now oversees operations around the globe and continues to set the pace for what’s expected in organic and sustainably raised and harvested food

STICK A FORK IN WHOLE FOODS

Shares of Whole Foods (WFM) plunged more than 10% Thursday after the high-end natural grocery chain reported sales and profits that missed analysts’ forecasts. Its outlook did not impress investors either.

Whole Foods has been cutting prices to try and counter its bad reputation for being too expensive. But doing that has hurt its profit margins.
