found 3 already


Ten men escaped from a New Orleans jail on Friday, possibly with help from officials at the jail, and should be considered armed and dangerous, officials with the Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office warned.

Three of the inmates have since been apprehended.

Kendell Myles was apprehended in the French Quarter, a tourist hot spot less than 3 miles from the Orleans Justice Center, the Louisiana State Police said. He was found hiding beneath a car in a hotel garage, according to officials. Myles is charged with attempted second-degree murder.

A second inmate, Robert Moody, was captured late Friday evening, according to police. More information on Moody's capture wasn't immediately released.

In an update late Friday night, authorities announced Dkenan Dennis had been captured near Chef Menteur Highway.


"We have made progress," Orleans Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick said during a press briefing. "Today, three of the escapees are now in custody. We have active leads on the others."

"People are talking. We appreciate that," the official said, highlighting that one of the arrests came directly from a Crime Stoppers tip. "The second person that we got into custody was actually an actual Crime Stopper tip."

Initially, officials said 11 had escaped, but officials didn't realize one had just been transferred to another cell.

Eight inmates remain at large, including four men -- Corey Boyd, Lenton Vanburen, Jermaine Donald and Derrick Groves -- who are charged with second-degree murder, officials said.

Some of the inmates began tampering with a locked cell door at 12:22 a.m. Friday and were seen on surveillance footage entering the cell about 20 minutes later, according to Major Silas Phipps with the Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office.


The 10 inmates exited the jail through a wall behind a toilet at 1:01 a.m., according to Orleans Parish Sheriff Susan Hutson. They then made their way off the property through a loading dock door and scaled the perimeter wall using blankets to protect themselves from the barbed wire, Phipps said. From there, they had a clear path to railroad tracks and then the interstate.

The sheriff's office showed surveillance video uncovered during their investigation into the breach that showed the inmates jarring open a sliding door on a cell, fleeing from the loading dock and running crossing Interstate 10. Their orange jail uniform was found abandoned in a neighborhood near I-10, authorities said.

"We have the indication that these detainees received assistance in their escape from inside our department," Hutson said at a press conference Friday.

"It's almost impossible -- not completely -- but almost impossible for anybody to get out of this facility without help from the outside," Hutson said.

The men were discovered missing during a routine headcount at the Orleans Justice Center at approximately 8:30 a.m. local time Friday, according to Major Silas Phipps with the Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office.


The United States Marshals, Louisiana State Police and Probation and Parole were notified by 9:30 a.m., the sheriff's office said. New Orleans police officials said they were notified at 10:30 a.m.

"These folks that were able to get out did so because of defective locks on the cells," Hutson said.

They will all be caught within one week, if you do the crime be prepared to do the time for that, you cant outrun the federal marshalls, this isnt prison break and you arent michael scoefield
Half the people in that show ended up dead, so getting sent back to prison might be the best case scenario

One of the ingenious fake heads used as a decoy during the 1962 escape of three prisonersβ€”Frank Morris, Clarence Anglin, and John Anglinβ€”from Alcatraz.

Crafted with a mix of soap, toilet paper, toothpaste, and concrete dust, these lifelike heads fooled the guards long enough for the escapees to make their legendary break. They were never definitively found or captured.

I was obsessed with the movie 'Escape from Alcatraz' as a kid.

I copied this and used it at my work back in 2015 - they still haven't caught on.....
