El Chapo Escapes Again

Mexico’s most secure prison, Federal Social Readaptation Center No. 1, is home to the country’s most violent narcotraffickers. Altiplano, as the prison is known, is located in central Mexico, not far from Toluca. The surrounding air space is a no-fly zone, to prevent an escape by helicopter. So that prisoners cannot communicate by cell phone with the outside, the airwaves are restricted. Nobody had ever escaped from the facility, until last night.
