In New Orleans, a maintenance worker named Sterling Williams was arrested for aiding the escape of ten inmates from the Orleans Parish Jail by turning off the water to their cell, allegedly under threat with a makeshift knife. Three escapees were recaptured the same day, and a fourth was caught later, while the remaining six, including Antoine Massey, are still at large. The inmates escaped by removing their toilet, breaking metal bars, and fleeing across a highway, prompting ongoing investigations into the incident and potential further prosecutions for accomplices.
