Nation IN BRIEF : TEXAS : Man Who Went Into Cult Complex Leaves

A man who had slipped past federal agents and into the besieged Branch Davidian cult compound walked out again, a spokesman for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms said in Waco. Louis Alaniz, 24, of Houston, left the fortified complex and was taken to the McLennan County Jail, the spokesman said. He entered the compound March 24, seeking religious teachings from cult leader David Koresh. Koresh and more than 90 followers have been barricaded in the compound since a Feb. 28 shootout with ATF agents who were trying to serve arrest and search warrants for weapons violations. Four agents and six cult members were killed.
