One of the two men who escaped from the Immigrations and Customs Enforcement GEO facility earlier this week in Aurora has been taken into custody. Joel Jose Gonzalez-Gonzalez was taken into custody by the Adams County Sheriff's Office early Friday morning.

The two reportedly escaped after a power outage at the Denver Contract Detention Facility in Aurora unlocked a set of doors. The GEO Group, which runs the facility, said in a statement that the outage may have allowed the two to bypass security and scale a perimeter fence.

One of two US Immigration and Customs Enforcement detainees who escaped during a power outage at a Colorado detention facility earlier this week was captured Friday, authorities said.
