Four migrant detainees who recently escaped from a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention center in Newark had been in custody for assault and burglary charges, according to police who made the information public on Friday.

The men were identified as Franklin Norberto Bautista-Reyes and Joel Enrique Sandoval-Lopez, both of Honduras, and Joan Sebastian Castaneda-Lozada and Andres Pineda-Mogollon, both of Colombia.

Bautista-Reyes was arrested in May for aggravated assault, attempt to cause bodily injury, terroristic threats, and possession of a weapon for unlawful purposes, the Department of Homeland Security said.

Sandoval-Lopez was arrested twice in the last year, once for unlawful possession of a handgun and again in February for aggravated assault.

Castaneda-Lozada was busted in May on burglary, theft, and conspiracy to commit burglary charges.

Similarly, Pineda-Mogollon was being held on residential burglary, conspiracy to commit residential burglary, and possession of burglary tools charges.

Lopez illegally entered the US as a minor in 2019, while the rest of the men snuck over the border during the Biden administration.

The DHS and the FBI are offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the four men.
