Alder Alfonso Marin-Sotelo, 26, was taken into custody by Mexican authorities in the state of Guerrero on Thursday, May 4, 2023, the FBI said."The investigation to determine his exact movements is ongoing," the FBI said. Authorities in Prince Edward County, Virginia, say they are searching for two inmates who escaped from the Piedmont Regional Jail."They somehow, we think, were potentially able to manipulate some locks, crawled through an opening that led them out into the rec-yard area," U.S. Marshal for the Eastern District of North Carolina, Larry Moltzan, told ABC News in an exclusive interview. "From there, they scaled two fences to get away from the jail.
"I think it's fair to reason that they may have talked about it, given that it was so similar," Moltzan said. "But they did not escape at the same time and didn't necessarily help each other in that way."Callahan is convicted of multiple federal drug charges and Marin-Sotelo is convicted of unlawful possession of a firearm, the sheriff's department said. Both are from North Carolina, the department said.
