Two people have been caught escaping quarantine facilities this week
5 November 2021
One absconded on foot on arrival at Auckland's Holiday Inn last night.
They were caught minutes later by police 100 metres down the road ... and now have a security guard outside their MIQ room.
Another left the Distinction Hamilton this morning by removing some perimeter fencing.
They left in a waiting car and found by police a short distance away -- and are now in custody.
MIQ joint head brigadier Rose King says it's hard to keep people in a facility if they're determined to leave.
