San Joaquin County Escapees Back In Custody After Running From SF Rehab Center

SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY (CBS13) — A San Joaquin County inmates who escaped from a rehab facility in San Francisco last week have been brought back into custody.

The sheriff's office said Stevie Wilson was brought back to the San Joaquin County Jail Tuesday around noon by the probation department. Wilson was granted a day pass last week to interview at the Delancey Street Rehabilitation Center.

Authorities say the probation officers who brought Wilson and several other inmates to the facility had direct orders not to chase them if they ran away.

The other escaped inmate, 23-year-old Elijah Ismael Cervantes, was taken into custody around 5:30 p.m. after a pursuit and crash in front of St. Mary's High School.

Wilson was in custody on robbery and firearm charges. Cervantes was arrested after allegedly attempting to carjack a vehicle with children inside.
