According to French media reports, on April 27 local time, a jailbreak happened on Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean: three criminals hijacked a tourist helicopter and flew to the sky above the prison on the island, and took away Julius Verbrandt who is the head of a cult serving his sentence and his accomplices who are a father-and-son pair. The helicopter then landed on a wasteland hundreds of meters away from the prison. These people escaped in a truck that had been waiting there. Currently, more than a thousand police forces on the island have been mobilized to carry out the manhunt.
