(NewsNation) — A fourth inmate was arrested Monday after 10 men escaped from a New Orleans jail Friday.
Gary C. Price, 21, was apprehended and will be transported to a secure state facility outside of the area, police said.
Authorities are still searching for the remaining six escaped inmates.
The men are considered armed and dangerous, and the public has been warned not to approach the men if spotted and instead call 911.
The FBI is now offering a $10,000 reward for the apprehension of each inmate in addition to the $5,000 rewards offered by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the local Crime Stoppers.
More than 200 law enforcement personnel have been involved in the search.
Ten inmates escaped in the early morning hours Friday, reportedly by using a hole behind a toilet and scaling a fence. Authorities have blamed faulty locks on cell doors for the escape and said there is evidence the men had help from inside the facility.
Jail employees did not know the men were missing until a headcount late Friday morning. Initially, 11 men were reported missing, but one was later located in a different cell.
The three other inmates who were captured are Kendell Myles, 20; Robert Moody, 21; and Dkenan Dennis, 24.
Authorities are still searching for the following fugitives:
- Antoine Massey, 33
- Lenton Vanburen, 27
- Derrick Groves, 27
- Corey Boyd, 20
- Leo Tate, 21
- Jermaine Donald, 42
Speaking to reporters on Monday, Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill did not directly answer whether Orleans Parish Sheriff Susan Hutson should be fired, instead stressing the need to ensure public safety with seven inmates still on the run.
“Everybody has lots of questions that they want answered. I do too, and I have an investigation underway,” Murrill said.
“Staffing problems are not just a problem at this prison; they’re a problem at prisons all over the state. We’re constantly challenged to hire qualified people and keep the staffing levels up. I think she’s been devastated by this happening. She’s trying to do everything she can,” Murrill added.
