Man fleeing police runs into prison yard

Ricky Flowers, 20, was fleeing on foot from Cleveland police when he climbed a 30-foot barbed-wire fence. Problem was, it was a fence surrounding a state prison. Apparently, police attempted to pull over Flowers's car. He and his passengers eventually stopped the car and ran. From AOL News:

Police say that they found seven bags of marijuana in the vehicle, and that Flowers told them he fled because he was driving with a suspended license.

Flowers, who cut his right arm on the barbed wire as he scaled the fence at the Northeast Pre-Release Center for Women, was taken to a local hospital, where he received 36 staples and stitches, police said.

Fleeing Police, Man Hops Fence Into Women's Prison

  36 staples and stitches from “barbed wire”? That’s razor wire. Big difference.

  I heard of revolving door prisons, but this is ridiculous! *RIMSHOT*

  D’oh!!!

  You almost wished the guy died just so he could qualify for his well deserved Darwin award. It’s like my grandfather used to say to me when I was just a little kid “Stupidity should be painful”

  See? Had they just tasered him before he got too high, he’d have been fine.

  The 30-foot fence should have been some kind of giveaway. He must have been tripping on psychedelic Friskies.

  Who sees a 30′ tall barbed wire fence and thinks “YES, I can obviously hide from the cops here! The owners are OBVIOUSLY sympathetic kind hearted folks who dislike authority!”

  I suppose if a guy’s going to accidentally break into prison, it may as well be a women’s prison.

  Sorry, I cannot resist:
  Epic FAIL! :D:D:D
