A violent offender was mistakenly released from Orleans Parish Jail due to a clerical error, and an investigation is underway as authorities work to recapture him.

An urgent manhunt is underway in Louisiana after authorities mistakenly released Khalil Bryan, 30, from the Orleans Justice Center due to a “human error.”

The error comes as the jail and the Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office are still reeling from the escape of 10 inmates in the early morning hours of May 16 when authorities say the inmates exited through a hole in a cell wall after ripping out a toilet. One of those inmates, convicted killer Derrick Groves, has yet to be recaptured.
