Leonardo Bertulazzi, a 74-year-old former member of Italy's Red Brigades, escaped house arrest in Buenos Aires by descending from a fifth-floor apartment using a harness and rope. He was awaiting extradition to Italy to serve a 27-year prison sentence for terrorism-related crimes. Authorities did not immediately detect his escape as he tampered with his electronic ankle monitor. A nationwide search is underway, and Argentina's Security Ministry has offered a reward for information leading to his capture.
