Authorities are searching for three Chilean nationals who escaped from the Laval Immigration Holding Centre north of Montreal.
Canada Border Services Agency says arrest warrants have been issued for Bryan Ulises Moya Rojas, Diego Nicolas Flores Sepulveda and Daniel Eliseo Gonzalez Ihrig after they left the facility Saturday night.
The men are 30, 36 and 29 years old, and CBSA did not say how they escaped or why they were detained.
They are asking anyone with information to contact the Sûreté du Québec and not try to apprehend the escapees themselves.
A SQ spokesperson confirmed an investigation was continuing, adding the men hadn’t been located as of Sunday afternoon.
