A Chinese migrant who had escaped from
custody on Vancouver Island was found Sunday after spending a night
in the woods.
The man is one of seven who fled
the Prince George Correctional Centre on Saturday. Air and ground
searches continue for the other six.
All seven were working in the kitchen shortly before their
escape. RCMP caught up to one of them less than half a kilometre
from the medium-security facility. They say the man was cold and
frightened.
The men are among hundreds of Chinese citizens who arrived off
the B.C. coast last summer in delapidated boats.
Just over two weeks ago, another illegal migrant broke out of the
same facility. He was captured a few hours later.
