Ninth escaped New Orleans inmate has been arrested, officials say
- Law enforcement arrested 33-year-old Antoine Massey in New Orleans on June 27, six weeks after the May 16 jail break.
- During the May 16 jailbreak, inmates yanked open a faulty cell door, removed a toilet, and crawled through a hole in the wall, exploiting structural weaknesses, authorities said.
- Multiple agencies including Louisiana State Police, FBI, U.S. Marshals, and others arrested at least 16 people aiding Massey’s escape, with Derrick Groves still at large.
- Massey will be transferred to a secure state correctional facility, with Derrick Groves remaining at large, as law enforcement continues the months-long manhunt.
- U.S. Marshals project the manhunt for the remaining fugitive could last into July, as authorities continue efforts to recapture Derrick Groves, who remains at large.
