1 of final 2 escaped inmates captured in New Orleans

Antoine Massey was recaptured on Friday after escaping from the Orleans Parish Correctional Facility in May, Louisiana State Police announced on Facebook.

Massey is the ninth escapee to be recaptured out of 10. Derrick Groves, the final jail escapee, is still at large.

Photographs show the opening behind the toilet in a cell that the men escaped through. There were drawings and messages above the hole saying "To Easy LoL" with an arrow pointing to the hole.

The inmates used a blanket to avoid being cut by barbed wire. They ran across the interstate and into a neighborhood.

There was no deputy at the pod where the men were being held, only the civilian technician who had left to get food.

Officials from the sheriff’s office said no deputy was at the pod where the fugitives had been held. There was a technician, a civilian there to observe the pod, but she had stepped away to get food, they said.

Orleans Parish Sheriff Susan Hutson said the men were able to get out of the Orleans Justice Center because of "defective locks."

At least one of the steel bars protecting plumbing fixtures "appeared to have been intentionally cut using a tool," according to a statement from the Orleans Parish Sheriff’s Office on Friday night.
