Last Update: 7:41 pm

BROWNSVILLE - Border Patrol agents in Brownsville say they've detained four men suspected of breaking out of a Tamaulipas state prison.

Agents caught the Mexican men as they tried crossing into the United States illegally Monday. A fingerprint search revealed the men were wanted by Mexican authorities for breaking out of the prison in Nuevo Laredo last year.

The suspected escapees will face federal charges for illegal entry then be extradited to face charges in Mexico.
