Escaped convicts William Sablan, Vicente Aldan Jr. and Jeffrey Celis fell into the hands of the SWAT team of the Department of Public Safety last Friday.

Sablan was convicted of several counts of assault, battery and robbery; Aldan for second-degree murder and Celis for robbery, burglary and theft.

Luis Camacho, who was convicted of sexually abusing three children, remains at large as of press time.

According to DPS reports, the three were hiding inside the cave off the Tutuman area in San Vicente. The group were picked up by the DPS team at high noon last Friday.

Their capture leaves Camacho as the lone criminal on the loose. Together with the seven inmates, he became a free man Monday night when they bolted out of the Division of Correction.

An island-manhunt was ordered by DPS for the eight convicts including three murderers, a rapist and child molester. While the public was advised to take extra precautionary measures.

Barely 24 hours since the jail break, Joseph Bowei and Ryan Babauta turned themselves in. Escaped convicts Edwin Blas and Arcel Busto were picked up early Thursday morning by police officers in DanDan.
