Prisoner Escapes By Mailing Himself Out In A FedEx Shipment

Published by muffin9129 at 4:29 pm under Uncategorized Edit This

Who ever said criminals were dumb needs to read this.  In fact, I would say the only dumb people in this news story are the guards at this jail.

In Germany, a prisoner  has escaped from jail by sending himself out in a big FedEx box that was filled with laundry.

Hans Lang, a well known drug dealer rolled himself up into a large bed sheet and hopped in the giant FedEx shipment.  The box was then put onto the truck, and drove out of the prison yard.

Hans waited until the truck  stopped when he picked the lock, and ran off into some nearby woods.

The driver noticed the lock was damaged, and a box had been opened, and notified the authorities.

Many of us have seen similar acts in the movies, but this is real.  You would think they have some way of knowing what is in their boxes.

So for all of you that say criminals are dumb remember this laundry bandit.
