2 of 4 ICE detainees who escaped from NJ facility captured: FBI
Two of four detainees who escaped from an immigration detention center in New Jersey on Friday have been captured, authorities said on Sunday.
The FBI's Newark field office said the detainees, Joel Enrique Sandoval-Lopez and Joan Sebastian Castaneda-Lozada, were back in custody but did not immediately release details about their reported apprehension.
Detainees Franklin Norberto Bautista-Reyes and Andres Pineda-Mogollon, who also escaped Friday from Delaney Hall Detention Facility in in Newark, remained at large on Sunday, officials said.
Sen. Andy Kim, D-N.J., said at a news conference on Friday that the four men escaped from the privately owned facility that has been contracted out by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) by breaking through a wall – which he described as "drywall with a mesh interior" – in a unit that led to an exterior wall and into a parking lot. Kim said he was briefed on escape by the facility's administrators and ICE officials.
Kim said the detainees bolted from the Delaney Hall during an "uprising" at the facility.
However, the Department of Homeland Security released a subsequent statement saying, "contrary to current reporting, there has been no widespread unrest at the Delaney Hall Detention facility."
DHS described all four detainees who escaped as "public safety threats."
The agency said Bautista-Reyes is from Honduras and that he allegedly illegally entered the United States in 2021. On May 3, 2025, the Wayne Township, N.J., Police Department arrested Bautista-Reyes on charges of aggravated assault, attempt to cause bodily injury, terroristic threats and possession of a weapon for unlawful purposes, according to DHS.
Pineda-Mogollon of Colombia entered the United States in 2023 and is illegally in country after overstaying a tourist visa, according to DHS.
On April 25, the New York City Police Department arrested Pineda-Mogollon for petit larceny, DHS said. After being released in New York City, Pineda-Mogollon was arrested on May 21 by the Union, N.J. Police Department on suspicion of residential burglary, conspiracy residential burglary and possession of burglary tools, according to DHS.
Captured detainee Castaneda-Lozada, also of Colombia, illegally entered the U.S. in 2022, according to DHS. He was arrested on May 15 in Hammonton, N.J., on suspicion of burglary, theft and conspiracy to commit burglary, DHS said.
The other captured detainee, Sandoval-Lopez of Honduras, illegally entered the U.S. as a minor in 2019. He was arrested on Feb. 15 by Passaic, N.J., police on a charge of aggravated assault. Sandoval-Lopez was also arrested on Oct. 3 in Passaic police on charges of unlawful possession of a handgun, according to DHS.

Live updates: Trump participates in G-7 amid military conflict between Israel, Iran
President Donald Trump is attending the opening day of the Group of Seven summit in Canada on Monday, where some of the staunchest and oldest U.S. allies are expected to discuss tariffs and the escalating military conflict between Israel and Iran — all while attempting to avoid direct confrontations with the mercurial U.S. president. While Trump began his international trip, U.S. law enforcement arrested a suspect Sunday evening in the shooting of two Democratic lawmakers and their spouses in what officials described as politically motivated attacks. The day after tanks and soldiers paraded through Washington and protesters poured into streets across the country, cleanup crews on Sunday moved the nation's capital back toward normalcy — their vehicles clanging, banging and beeping as they disassembled the setting of the U.S. Army's 250th anniversary celebration. A former senior Syrian security official has told the FBI that American freelance journalist Austin Tice was killed in 2013 on the orders of President Bashar al-Assad, an account that has not been corroborated by the United States but marks the first time a senior official in the Assad regime has spoken to U.S. officials about Tice's fate. COPENHAGEN — French President Emmanuel Macron visited Greenland on Sunday, saying he was bringing 'a message of solidarity and friendship' from France and the European Union to a strategic Arctic territory that President Donald Trump has vowed to 'get' for the United States 'one way or another.' Asked by a reporter about Trump's promise to somehow annex Greenland, which is an autonomous territory of Denmark, Macron responded, 'I don't think that's what allies do.'

This New Ransomware Can Irrevocably Destroy Your Files — Backup Now
Anubis rasnomware can destroy your files. Forever. As if the threat from high-profile ransomware actors wasn't critical enough, with the Federal Bureau of Investigation issuing warnings as attacks skyrocket, and ransoms follow suit with, on occasion, ridiculously eye-watering payments demanded, a new ransomware-as-a-service platform has just upped the stakes since again. This time, as well as stealing your data and encrypting your files, the Anubis attackers install a custom wiper that can permanently and irrevocably destroy them at the whim of the hackers. There has been some notable success in disrupting ransomware attackers of late, with devastating strikes by the FBI and Secret Service as well as hackers attacking some of the leading organized ransomware criminal groups. The problem is that as one group is disrupted or disbands, another rises to take their place in the cybercriminal hierarchy. And these groups often bring new and worrying attack tactics with them. Such is the case with the Anubis ransomware-as-a-service platform. 'Anubis is an emerging ransomware-as-a-service group that adds a destructive edge to the typical double-extortion model with its file-wiping feature,' Trend Micro threat researchers Maristel Policarpio, Sarah Pearl Camiling and Sophia Nilette Robles, said in a new report that takes a deep technical dive into the workings of the latest ransomware threat. In an attempt to both set itself apart from other ransomware-as-a-service operations and twist the victim extortion leverage knife even further, Anubis employs a file wiper that, the researchers said, is 'designed to sabotage recovery efforts even after encryption.' This wiper uses a /WIPEMODE parameter to permanently delete the file contents and prevent any attempts at recovery. We know that the Anubis attackers employ a number of methods to deploy the ransomware and execute its feature set, including phishing, command line execution and privilege escalation, not to mention the file-wiping capabilities already discussed. Mitigation strategies, therefore, are relatively straightforward. Let's start with the big one, to mitigate the file-wiper impact. Backup and backup now. Ensuring that you have current offline and even off-site backups is your best defense against the Anubis eraser ransomware. The remainder are nothing new either, as Trend Micro points out: Do all of this and, suddenly, the Anubis ransomware threat becomes a lot less scary. Which isn't the same as saying it can be dismissed, as that would be a very poor and dangerous business decision indeed.
