WHITFIELD: A group of inmates at a prison in Mexico are on the run after staging a brazen escape right out of the pages of drug lord, El Chapo's escape. These inmates broke out on Thursday through a huge tunnel dug underneath a prison wall. It happened about 200 miles south of the U.S.-Mexico border in the town of Ciudad Victoria. CNN correspondent, Leyla Santiago is joining me live now from Mexico City. So Leyla, are there any leads as to where these prisoners could be?</s>LEYLA SANTIAGO, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Well, just in the last hour, Fredricka, authorities have announced that they have now recaptured another one of the 29 inmates. So the tally stands at 15 that remain on the run, 14 have now been captured. And those who have been captured have been in the same city so we know that investigators are certainly focusing their efforts there, but when it comes to other questions of the investigations, really authorities have not said much and are citing security reasons. When I called the prison this morning, they refused to answer any questions over the phone and said there was an ongoing investigation.</s>WHITFIELD: And so Leyla, are those inmates considered dangerous?</s>SANTIAGO: At this point, we are still trying to sort of figure out what exact crimes they were being imprisoned for, but this will really paint the picture. Once the inmates escaped, again, 29 of them, authorities have told us that one man was carjacking another man and shot that man. So yes, already we have seen the very known dangers of having these escaped inmates out there, but again, authorities really focusing on reestablishing order and regaining control within the jail because just Friday as they went in to search the cells, there was a riot. And the inmates -- there was fire because of some of the debris that they sparked. And so really, it's about regaining control, not only outside of the prison but also within.</s>WHITFIELD: All right. Leyla Santiago, thank you so much. So much more straight ahead in the NEWSROOM.
