Authorities say 10 men broke out of a New Orleans jail by fleeing through a hole behind a toilet. Seven of them are still on the lam. One was caught soon after the Friday morning escape. Two others were caught later. Orleans Parish Sheriff Susan Hutson says there are indications that the men received help in their escape from people in the department. Authorities say the lone guard assigned to their cell pod was away getting food at the time. Jail officials first noticed the men were missing during a Friday morning headcount. Three employees have been placed on suspension pending the outcome of an investigation.
