NEWARK, N.J. — According to the FBI Newark, three out of four detainees who escaped from an immigration detention center in New Jersey have been apprehended and are now in police custody.
The video featured is from a previous report.
Franklin Norberto Bautista-Reyes was taken into custody Tuesday, according to police.
Joel Enrique Sandoval-Lopez and Joan Sebastian Castaneda-Lozada were taken into custody June 13 and 18.
Officials are still searching for Andres Pineda-Mogollon, who is still on the run.
He was arrested previously on local petty larceny and residential burglary charges.
The FBI is offering a reward of up to $25,000 for information leading to the arrest of Pineda-Mogollon.
During a press conference, Sen. Andy Kim, D-N.J., revealed that the escape occurred at a privately operated facility overseen by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The detainees managed to break through a wall described as “drywall with a mesh interior,” leading them to an exterior wall and ultimately to a parking lot. Sen. Kim was briefed on the escape by both the facility’s administrators and ICE officials.
Kim said the detainees bolted from Delaney Hall during an “uprising” at the facility.
In contrast, the Department of Homeland Security issued a statement refuting claims of widespread unrest at the Delaney Hall Detention facility despite initial reports suggesting otherwise.
