NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — 33-year-old Antoine Massey has been captured after 10 people escaped from the Orleans Justice Center over a month prior, on May 16.
Confirmation of Massey’s capture was provided by the U.S. Marshal’s Office, with the inmate reportedly being found on Stroelitz Street in the Hollygrove neighborhood thanks to a tip that came from Crimestoppers.
Officials with the Louisiana State Police say he will be taken to a correctional facility outside of the area. At the time of the escape he was facing charges of domestic abuse battery involving strangulation, theft of a motor vehicle and parole violation. More charges may follow his arrest.
Homeland Security, the New Orleans Police Department, the Orleans Parish Sheriff’s Office, Louisiana State Police, US Marshalls and the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office were all involved in the arrest.
More details are expected to be provided by the NOPD in a 5:30 p.m. news conference, to be live streamed in this story.
With Massey’s capture, only one alleged escapee, Derrick Groves, remains on the run. Prior to the latest capture, it had been over a full month since another inmate, Lenton Vanburen, was taken into custody.
