The police have confirmed the capture of Demar Williams, also known as 'Demon' or 'Kye Kye', one of the eight escapees from the Black River lock-up in St Elizabeth last year June.
The police say he is a known violence producer.
They say Williams is identified as having close ties with the One Order gang, allegedly led by Fitzroy Mathaias, also known as 'Scuffler'.
"His apprehension marks a significant development in our ongoing efforts to combat organised crime and ensure public safety," the police say.
The police say they are continuing efforts to locate and apprehend the remaining escapees and dismantle criminal networks.
