A prison escapee who led authorities on a manhunt for more than five hours Friday morning has been caught.

Detainee Gregory Thomas Bernardo was reported missing from the Post 25 dome units in Mangilao at 5:36 am.

Guam police were called to assist in the search.

Around 12 pm, authorities were able to track him down in an area in Yona located more than five miles away from the Department of Corrections compound.

Bernardo was taken back into custody and could face additional charges.

Prison records show he was arrested back in February 2023 in connection to multiple armed robberies.
