One remaining Orleans Parish prison escapee is still on the run after local and federal officials on Friday arrested ninth fugitive Antoine Massey.

On May 16, Massey, along with nine other inmates, broke out from a minimum-security facility at the Orleans Justice Center by dislodging a toilet from the wall in their cell and navigating through the opening.

One fugitive, four-time convicted killer Derrick Groves, remains at large.

“It’s the final countdown,” Gov. Jeff Landry said in a Friday post on X.

Authorities reported that the Orleans Justice Center was operating with only 60% of its staff, and at the time of the breakout, four supervisors and 36 personnel were tasked with overseeing 1,400 prisoners.

Orleans Parish Sheriff Susan Hutson announced a temporary suspension of her re-election campaign in a statement on May 21.

A total $50,000 reward from different agencies is being offered for information leading to Groves’ arrest.
