The 14-year-old was taken to a local hospital where he was evaluated and released. Additionally, a warrant was issued for Klaybor's arrest on April 8.

Richmond-area immigrants face ICE arrests at routine check-ins
ICE agents are increasingly showing up at Richmond-area courthouses and arresting immigrants at routine check-ins once considered safe, local immigration lawyers tell Axios. The big picture: ICE arrests at the Chesterfield courthouse have put a spotlight on the county in the past month, sparking concerns from some county leaders and conservative Sheriff Karl Leonard, who told WTVR it's straining efforts to build trust with immigrant communities. But it's not happening only in Chesterfield. Henrico's Commonwealth's Attorney Shannon Taylor told Axios there have been three instances since June where federal agents showed up at Henrico's courthouse. While Richmond's Commonwealth's Attorney Colette McEachin told Axios that ICE hasn't been spotted at city courthouses yet, "victims have expressed concerns about coming to court." McEachin also says defense attorneys have begun calling her office asking if there are any ICE agents "in or near Richmond's three courthouses." Zoom in: Then there are the arrests happening at routine check-ins in ICE's Midlothian field office — something Richmond-based immigration attorney Miriam Airington-Fisher says she hadn't seen before in her 16 years of practice. These required check-ins are scheduled appointments for people with pending immigration cases where officers confirm their address and that they haven't had any criminal charges. Airington-Fisher says even people with no criminal history who have "done everything right" are getting detained. She's now advising clients to not attend these check-ins without an attorney. ICE did not respond to Axios ' requests for comment. Threat level: Airington-Fisher says she's seeing people withdraw their immigration cases even though many are still getting approved. And a longtime free legal clinic in Richmond that her firm hosts monthly has seen a decline in attendance. Victims of crime could also be impacted if undocumented witnesses are too scared to testify in court, says Jessica Wright, a Richmond-based immigration attorney. Wright says fear of these arrests have also created a ripple effect where clients have questioned whether to pull their kids from school, quit their jobs or call local police when needed. What they're saying: "I have grown men shaking in their boots, asking me to escort them from their car, straight into the courtroom and stand by their side all the way back to their car," Wright says. "It's so demoralizing."

9 New Orleans inmates who broke out of jail in May plead not guilty to escape charges
Nine of the 10 inmates accused of breaking out of a New Orleans city jail by climbing through a hole behind a toilet earlier this year have pleaded not guilty to charges related to the escape on July 23, the Louisiana Attorney General's Office said. Ten men escaped from the Orleans Parish Prison in the early hours of May 16, breaching a cell wall and using a blind spot to flee undetected. The jailbreak was one of the largest and most brazen in recent U.S. history, prompting a massive manhunt that spanned multiple states and sparked immediate scrutiny over the prison's security vulnerabilities. Three men were recaptured by the end of the same day, and five more were caught weeks after the escape. The most recent inmate was captured in late June — nearly six weeks after the high-profile escape. The 10th inmate, Derrick Groves, a convicted killer, remains at large. The nine men appeared via video from the maximum-security Louisiana State Penitentiary, where they are all now being held, for their arraignment on July 23, The Times-Picayune/ reported. Lester Duhé, a spokesperson for the Louisiana Attorney General's Office, confirmed to USA TODAY that the nine men pleaded not guilty to escape charges. An attorney for Groves was present at the hearing but did not enter a plea on his behalf, according to The Times-Picayune/ All 10 inmates are charged with simple escape, which carries a sentence of two to five years in prison, authorities said. The inmates initially faced other criminal charges, including murder, aggravated assault, and domestic abuse. "Everyone is entitled to due process. But there's a video of these detainees running out of the jail in the middle of the night. They were not heading to court hearings," Attorney General Liz Murrill said in a statement on social media after the hearing. "We will continue to hold everyone accountable for the escape." Louisiana prison escape: A jailbreak, a massive manhunt and a push to fix New Orleans' broken lockup How did the inmates escape? The inmates escaped by going through a hole in a cell wall after ripping away a toilet and sink unit, according to authorities. They fled from the building by passing through a loading dock door. The group then moved along a secure perimeter road between the jail and a building under construction, authorities said. After scaling a barbed wire fence, surveillance footage captured the men running across Interstate 10 and disappearing into a nearby neighborhood, where investigators later found discarded prison clothing. The escape went unnoticed for more than seven hours after authorities discovered the men were missing from a morning headcount. Authorities found several taunting phrases and doodles scrawled on the wall above the hole, including "To [sic] easy lol" and "Catch us when you can." Authorities have said they suspected that other people had either helped the inmates escape from the prison or helped them evade capture. Since the jailbreak, at least 16 people have been arrested for aiding the escapees. Most of the alleged accomplices are family members of the escapees, according to authorities. Jail maintenance worker Sterling Williams, 33, was arrested and charged with being a principal to simple escape and malfeasance in office. Murrill previously said Williams admitted that he complied with a demand from one of the inmates to shut off the water to a cell, which allowed the escapees to remove the toilet and sink unit. His lawyer said he did so because of a clogged toilet, not to aid in the escape. New Orleans jail escape: Maps and videos show how it happened 10th inmate still on the lam Groves, 27, is the only inmate who remains at large. New Orleans Police Chief Anne Kirkpatrick has urged Groves to turn himself in, saying that either way, "you will be taken into custody." He was convicted of two charges of second-degree murder and two charges of attempted second-degree murder in October in connection with a shooting during Mardi Gras in 2018. Groves also has been awaiting sentencing on a manslaughter charge since October. On June 27, authorities arrested Antoine Massey, 33, at a residence in New Orleans, according to the Louisiana State Police. He was initially in jail on charges of domestic abuse involving strangulation and theft of a motor vehicle. Massey made national headlines last month after two videos posted on social media showed a man purporting to be the escapee and claiming to be innocent. State and local authorities had said they were aware of the videos and were reviewing them.

3 men who went missing while fishing and swimming in Mississippi River found dead
MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- Three men who were reported missing while fishing and swimming on a sandbar in the Mississippi River have been found dead near Memphis, Tennessee, authorities said Wednesday. Search and rescue teams with the Shelby County Sheriff's Office and other Memphis-area agencies began looking for the men Tuesday evening after they were reported missing near a boat ramp at Meeman-Shelby Forest State Park, authorities said. The search, which included aircraft, rescue boats and the use of sonar, was suspended Tuesday night because of darkness. It resumed Wednesday morning, the sheriff's office said. The first two bodies were recovered about 11 a.m. and the third about 12:45 p.m., the sheriff's office said. A cause of death will be determined by the medical examiner. The three men were described as Hispanic, ranging in age from their 20s to their 50s, the county fire department said. Officials say the area has become increasingly popular for recreation at the state park in Shelby Forest, located north of Memphis. But the river is treacherous, with several hazards present, including strong currents, submerged items, branches and debris. 'There are eddy currents that can pull an Olympic swimmer under. You can be drawn into the channel and find yourself staring at a 24-unit barge that's the size of a skyscraper on its side coming straight at you with no way for the barge crew to have any idea that you are there,' the fire department said on Facebook.
