3 Of 4 Escaped ICE Detainees Captured After 'Uprising' At Prison In Newark (UPDATED)

Civil unrest broke out at Delaney Hall in New Jersey. Four detainees escaped and three are back in custody, authorities say.
Two to four detainees who escaped from the Elizabeth Contract Detention Facility in New Jersey during an uprising on Thursday night are still at large, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The incident began around 6 p.m. when a group of detainees refused to return to their cells, leading to a disturbance that involved setting fires and damaging property. Local and federal law enforcement, including the FBI and U.S. Marshals Service, are involved in the ongoing search for the escapees. ICE has not released the identities of the escapees but confirmed that they were being held on immigration violations. The facility, operated by CoreCivic, a private prison company, is currently under lockdown, and an investigation into the uprising and escape is underway.
