Authorities reported that a second undocumented immigrant, who supposedly fled from a Colorado detention facility during a power failure last month, has been apprehended on a bus as of Tuesday.

Geilond Vido-Romero, 24, allegedly associated with the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang, was detained while traveling on a bus in Denver, according to the U.S. Marshals Service.

Vido-Romero was arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in February and was suspected of shoplifting and resisting arrest.

On March 18, he and Joel Jose Gonzalez-Gonzalez, 32, allegedly escaped from the Denver Contract Detention Facility in Aurora during a power outage.

Assistant Facility Director Mohamed Bennani told Aurora Police power at the detention center went out at around 9:30 p.m., and the back doors of the center opened up to the soccer field.

Gonzalez-Gonzalez was found three days after the escape in nearby Adams County, where he had been previously held in jail.

Court and police documents show Vido-Romero lived at the now-closed apartment complex in Aurora where some armed Tren de Aragua members were seen entering an apartment on a viral video that caught President Donald Trump’s attention during last year’s presidential campaign.
