Nine juveniles are back in custody after police say they broke out of a detention center in Berks County over the weekend.
Nine juveniles are back in custody less than 12 hours after police say they broke out of a detention center in Berks County over the weekend.
As state and local law enforcement "took back control" of the facility, they noticed nine juveniles were missing. On Monday morning, Pennsylvania Police announced that four of the escaped juveniles were taken into custody inside a house on Oak Grove Road at 5:47 a.m. The remaining five were caught in a stolen vehicle and trailer less than an hour later. They were taken into custody after a brief pursuit, bringing the search to an end, police said during a Monday morning press conference.
Police say all nine teens will now be charged with escape, as well as any other crime committed while on the run.
