"Mark Anderson, 36, was charged by authorities on Thursday over the alleged incident, according to multiple reports citing law enforcement sources familiar with the situation, including ABC News. Anderson allegedly showed up to the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn and posed as a federal agent while claiming to have a court order for Mangione's release. Anderson allegedly drove from Minnesota to New York to break Mangione out from behind bars."
"A criminal complaint obtained by ABC News did not name Mangione in the new attempted prison break, but sources told the outlet that Mangione was the intended prisoner Anderson was seeking to have released. According to the complaint, Anderson was armed with weapons in a bag, including a pizza cutter and barbecue fork (pictured below). Screenshot via ABC News Anderson allegedly presented a driver's license and some paperwork to prison officials, but obviously did not have the credentials he claimed to have had."
