YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill spoke to reporters yesterday about the escaped inmates from a New Orleans jailbreak that occurred on Friday. "The governor has issued an Executive Order to require an audit of the jail," she said.

Wild video showed the moment the 10 inmates were spotted sprinting away from the jail under the cover of darkness, just moments after brazenly escaping via a hole covered by a toilet in one of the cells. The inmates, including several locked up on murder raps, broke out of the Orleans Parish Jail early Friday in an audacious overnight escape as the lone guard assigned to their cell pod was away getting food, authorities said.

In the moments leading up to the escape, surveillance footage captured the criminals prying open one of the cell doors before they all managed to squeeze through the tiny porthole.
