East Lyme — York Correctional Institution in Niantic remained in lockdown Thursday evening following an escape attempt by an inmate who tried to scale a perimeter fence.

The woman, identified as 25-year-old Nicole Godin of Watertown, never made it over the fence, according to a statement from the state Department of Correction’s Office of Public Information.

She was caught by DOC staff.
