Khalil Bryan, 30, was released from the Orleans Justice Center on July 25 due to a "human failure" that led to two deputies being fired, according to the Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office. He was "safely apprehended" in Texas after an anonymous tip led to "critical information on his whereabouts," the Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office said.

A Texas felon sentenced to prison was mistakenly released from Harris County Jail after a paperwork error. Officials are asking the public to help locate him.

Authorities said they would conduct a "thorough investigation" to determine the circumstances behind the release.
