Mexico mass jailbreak sparks manhunt near Texas border

In this article, over 100 inmates escaped from a Mexico jail close to the United States border. They escaped from the prison in Piedras Negras, which borders an area the east of Texas. The inmates dug tunnels to escape. A manhunt has been in action to prevent any of the jailbroken inmates to cross the border. The state government offered rewards up to $15,600 for the capture of any inmate. This has been not the only, but the biggest jail breakout to happen in Mexico. Police have been protecting the border to prevent any of the jailbroken inmates from escaping.
Piedras Negras is located in Coahuila.
