Gaol Escapees Captured at George's River
Darcy Dugan aged 29 and Wills Ceci were captured at a weekend cottage near Menai on George's River Dam after escaping Long Bay Gaol. Detectives stormed the cottage at dawn, took them into custody without a fight, and charged both men with assault, robbery, and escaping lawful custody. Police tied the fugitives to Sydney contact, and a dawn raid yielded a revolver and details of the escape. They faced central court today for charges including the August 17 robbery of Margaret McNaughton Simpson and remand without bail.
