Followup, in case you were wondering what happened after that big jailbreak.
SULAIMANIYAH, Iraq — An Iraqi police official says prison officials and guards have been detained after 17 prisoners including 10 al-Qaida-affiliated detainees broke out of jail in a northern Iraqi city.

Police on Saturday said the entire staff of the detention center is being questioned as part of the investigation into the prison break in the city of Kirkuk on Friday. A police official said that one of the escaped prisoners has been recaptured.

Kirkuk is located 180 miles (290 kilometers) north of Baghdad.
