One of the Caribbean region's most wanted alleged drug barons has been arrested in Puerto Rico.
Jose Figueroa Agosto was captured by the FBI in the island's capital, San Juan, ending a decade-long manhunt.
He is accused of running a major smuggling ring that moved Colombian cocaine into the US via Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic.
In 1999, Mr Figueroa, 45, escaped from prison in Puerto Rico, where he was serving a 209-year sentence for murder.
Last year, he narrowly avoided capture in the Dominican Republic, escaping on foot after police shot out a tyre on his car. - BBC
