Four of eight captured escapees from the Hawai'i Youth Correctional Facility have been temporarily transferred to the Women's Community Correctional Center for disciplinary reasons, said HYCF administrator Melvin Ando.

The transfer was done with Family Court approval.

Two of the 10 girls who escaped Aug. 31 from HYCF are still at large.

Ando said Child & Family Services, which is contracted by the state to provide security and other services at the girls' facility, has added more staff since the escape.
