Speaker 1 (00:00):
An urgent man hunt is underway in New Orleans after
ten inmates escaped from the Orleans Justice Center last week.
Authorities say the escape was discovered during a routine head count.
A few of the escapees have been caught, but there
are still several on the run. How did they escape?

(00:20):
There was a hole cut in the wall behind the
sink and toilet and they were able to crawl through
the hole into the pipe, chase onto the loading dock,
across the jail wall, and over the interstate. That's how
they did it. They wrote a sign on the wall
that read too easy. Lol. The public has been warned

(00:43):
that they should be considered armed and dangerous. The Orleans
Justice Center is located just three miles from the city's
French Quarter, which raises concern about public safety.

Wow, who I saw pictures of it? Yeah on the news.

don't know. I bet to you will you will be
writing no more too easy signs.
