It’s understood that Ferguson had been in hiding since the Police reported that he escaped from a room at the Montego Freeport station last Tuesday.
According to the police, Ferguson escaped via a window at the facility, before entering a hallway and making his way outside the grounds of the station.
But our sources say Ferguson will likely give a different account of the story.
