Massive Manhunt and Arrests Following New Orleans Jailbreak
A significant jailbreak from a New Orleans jail, which involved 10 inmates escaping through a hole in a cell wall, has led to ongoing efforts to recapture them. As of now, 6 inmates remain at large, including individuals with violent histories. Two women and a maintenance worker have been arrested for allegedly aiding in the escape, while a jail employee claims to have assisted due to threats against his life. The situation has sparked fear among the community and prompted law enforcement to escalate their manhunt. Authorities are investigating the possibility of an inside job, particularly after multiple incidents and videos showed the escapees in the Central Business District. New Orleans Sheriff has halted his reelection campaign in light of the crisis, and a reward for information leading to the capture of the remaining fugitives is being offered.
