Authorities are searching for a 29-year-old member of a San Antonio drug ring who escaped from a federal prison camp.
A federal marshal says Adam Villarreal probably walked out of the minimum-security Three Rivers Federal Prison Camp between midnight and 3 a.m. Sunday.
Deputy Marshal Tom Smith says he apparently had arranged for someone to pick him up.
U.S. Marshal Carlos Trevizo says Villarreal is considered to be a dangerous fugitive.
He was sentenced to 13 years in prison in December 2003 for conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute 5 kilograms or more of cocaine.
He was an admitted member of a cocaine smuggling ring led by his uncle, Joey Villarreal, who's also in prison.
Smith says the prison camp from which Adam Villarreal escaped has only small fences, allowing inmates to walk away.
