Authorities Capture 3 Juvenile Detention Center Escapees
Three juveniles who escaped from an Orange County detention center were caught late Tuesday.
A hunt involving dogs, helicopters and police from Garden Grove, Anaheim and Orange began after a Garden Grove resident reported seeing three young men wearing jerseys from the Youth Guidance Center in Santa Ana.
Police caught one of the juveniles near the intersection of Somerset and Sussex avenues in Garden Grove, and another in Anaheim near the Sherwood Village Apartments.
Late Tuesday, police caught the third juvenile after a short car chase.
Neither police nor officials at the Youth Guidance Center would release charges against the escapees nor details of their escape.
