Toronto authorities have reported a daring escape from the Toronto South Detention Center, where a suspect impersonated another inmate to slip away from custody. The fugitive, identified as Steven Alexander Guzman Marroquin, 32, managed to elude capture on Monday night in the Horner Avenue and Kipling Avenue vicinity.
Disguised as a soon-to-be-released prisoner who was to wear an ankle monitor, Guzman Marroquin exploited the confusion, leading staff to inadvertently affix the tracking device to him before departing the premises undetected. The discarded monitor was later recovered at a nearby gas station, raising concerns about the suspect’s whereabouts.
Described as approximately five feet nine inches tall, weighing 200 pounds, with a distinctive ponytail and beard, Guzman Marroquin is deemed a dangerous individual by law enforcement.
