Man Escapes Prison To Go To Nearby Bar

If a guy escapes from prison, I expect he has some big plans, or has masterminded some big disappearance on the outside. But I guess some guys just want a beer.

A man escaped police from a holding cell in Pennsylvania, only to go to a nearby bar for a drink.

According to WPXI, the guy knocked the door of his holding cell off its hinges and made his daring escape. His first stop was a friend’s house where he asked to borrow some shoes and thee went to a bar. But as you can guess, police weren’t too far behind. Another patron had bought our guy a drink and said police showed up minutes later.

He asked me to buy him a beer, so I bought him a beer. He didn't even get to take a drink of it before they slammed him on the bar...He was only here a few minutes before police showed up.

I don’t think moves like this are going to earn him any “good behavior” points now that he’s back in custody.
