Pennsylvania has endured several jail escapes in recent months, and the problems appear to be at the local level, CNN reported Friday.
Last week, a convicted murderer escaped from a facility in Chester County after an inmate escaped from the same location in a similar way in May, the outlet said.
“The same month, two people escaped from a Philadelphia jail through a hole in a recreation yard fence. And in July an inmate escaped from an exercise room in the Warren County jail in the northwest part of the state,” the report continued.
The inmate who escaped in July, identified as Michael Burham, was found by a resident’s dog and eventually captured, according to Breitbart News.
