If it did, it didn’t cross the event horizon. It was stretched out and spun around faster and faster until it escaped, like a really long gravity slingshot.
I’m no expert on it, but some think it did, it was dark for three years and then matter/light shot out. I have seen more detailed articles on it previously, this was just from a quick search.
Being dark doesn’t mean it crossed the event horizon and came out, it just means the light hadn’t been re-emitted yet. It could be orbiting outside for that time.

It would seem that light may, in fact, be able to escape.
