After a five-hour manhunt, an
escaped Bluewater Youth Centre
inmate is back in custody.
A- 17 -year-old male broke free
of the youth detention centre at
12:45 p.m. last Wednesday.
A witness to the incident im-
mediately called OPP, who put in
place a massive search effort that
resulted in the male being detained
just before 6 p.m.
Road blocks were set up at major
roadways surrounding the Goder-
ich, including points at Highway
21 and Highway 8. An OPP he-
licopter was sent in from Orillia
within minutes of the escape alert,
and the Canadian Coast Guard
was also put standby.
"All of the troops came in," said
OPP Const. Joanna Van Mierlo.
"We were able to bring in a lot of
officers in a very short period of
time and put out a well orches-
trated effort with a lot of coordi-
nation."
Along with air, water and road
surveillance, two K-9 units were
also dispatched to the area.
As OPP conducted vehicle
searches, just before 6 p.m. a
search of a vehicle on Bluewa-
ter Highway near Bayfield Road
was found to contain the youth.
He was arrested on the spot, and
is back in custody.
The Ministry of Children and
Youth Services told the Signal -
Star an investigation into the
circumstances of the escape is
ongoing.
