Five Venezue­lan na­tion­als es­caped from the Im­mi­gra­tion De­ten­tion Cen­tre in Aripo on Tues­day, June 24, by cut­ting a hole in the roof of the fa­cil­i­ty.

Po­lice were alert­ed at ap­prox­i­mate­ly 3:20 p.m. that the five men had gone miss­ing. They were last seen at the East­ern Main Road fa­cil­i­ty at 2:45 p.m. and are be­lieved to have fled through the mess­ing area. The es­capees have been iden­ti­fied as Chris­t­ian Jose Riv­iero Pa­rades, Leirz­er Omar Meza Font, Samuel Ed­uar­do Gon­za­lez Ro­driguez, Miguel Sanchez, and Jhonathan Je­sus Car­reno.

Of­fi­cers from NDTF Units 1 and 2, Ari­ma CID, Cu­mu­to Mo­bile, Air Sup­port, and Ari­ma OCP re­spond­ed and con­duct­ed search­es of the sur­round­ing area, but the men were not lo­cat­ed.

Com­mis­sion­er of Po­lice Al­lis­ter Gue­var­ro ar­rived on site to over­see the op­er­a­tion, and a co­or­di­nat­ed man­hunt is un­der way. The Trinidad and To­ba­go Po­lice Ser­vice is urg­ing the pub­lic to re­main vig­i­lant and re­port any sight­ings or sus­pi­cious ac­tiv­i­ty to 999, 555, or the near­est po­lice sta­tion.
