According to an affidavit, Orleans Parish Jail escapee Lenton Vanburen was arrested in the 9600 block of Old Hammond Highway on May 26. During a search of Vanburen, officers found a room key for the Super 6 Inn and Suites. After discovering the key, investigators met with staff at the Super 6 Inn and learned that the room was reserved under the name Vi Duc Nguyen, 44.
Video surveillance confirmed Nguyen reserved the room on May 24, around 9:30 p.m., with cash. Footage also shows Nguyen driving his Toyota Rav4 around the back of the building. Nguyen entered the stairway, along with another subject who had on similar clothing to Vanburen during the time of his arrest.
Nguyen was arrested and booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison on charges of simple escape/aggravated escape and accessory after the fact.
