Five people have been arrested on suspicion of helping some of the 10 escapees who broke out of the Orleans Justice Center last week.

The manhunt for inmates who escaped the Orleans Parish jail is entering its second week. Here are the latest updates, including a new related arrest for heling escapees.

Authorities say Tra'Von Johnson, 22, who escaped from the Tangipahoa Parish Jail about a year ago, has accomplished the same feat again.

Agents gathered enough evidence to show that Trevon Williams assisted with the escape and secured an arrest warrant for him, according to Murrill’s office.

A sixth person has been arrested for allegedly helping inmates who broke out of a New Orleans jail last week, authorities said. Trevon Williams, an inmate at the Orleans Justice Center, is accused of aiding the 10 inmates who escaped from the jail on May 16,

Louisiana State Police have this stern warning for citizens as they continue to hunt down five escapees from the New Orleans prison.

Nearly a week after 10 inmates yanked open a faulty cell door inside a city jail and moved the toilet to squeeze through a hole, five remain on the lam.

While police are still searching for several of the inmates who escaped from a New Orleans jail, another Louisiana jail has experienced a surprisingly similar breakout. Questions about public safety have been racing in the Bayou State after these jail breaks happened less than a full week apart.
