LA VILLA, TX - Authorities say six federal inmates who escaped a Texas jail last night are considered "very dangerous and armed."

The men overpowered an officer and cut through at least four fences at the East Hidalgo Detention Center.

The privately-run jail is in La Villa, about 20 miles north of the Mexican border.

Dozens of officers are searching for the escapees using bloodhounds and helicopters.
