One of three inmates who escaped from a Southern California jail a week ago turned himself in to police and is cooperating, authorities said. Escaped inmate Bac Duong "contacted a civilian on the streets of Santa Ana and stated he wanted to turn himself in" at around 11:30 a.m. Friday, Orange County Sheriff Sandra Hutchens said.
The other two inmates, Hossein Nayeri, 37, Jonathan Tieu, 20, remain on the loose and investigators believe they may be in a white utility van in the San Jose area or bound for Fresno. A teacher at the jail, Nooshafarin Ravaghi, 44, was arrested Thursday and charged with giving Google Earth images showing the area around the jail to Nayeri.
