Mexican Jailbirds Walked Out the Front Door

The 131 Mexican inmates who fled jail this week escaped through the front door, not a tunnel as was previously reported, local officials say.

The officials in Coahuila state, near the US border, said guards and a drug cartel had helped the inmates.

The prison's director and other officials in the city of Piedras Negras have now been detained.
