Man Escapes Prison In Box

In what many videogame analysts will classify under "Holy crap! That actually works?!?", a Turkish prisoner has escaped a German prison through the clever use of a box. While gamers have been been following Solid Snake's box-stealth adventures in the Metal Gear and Metal Gear Solid series for more than a decade, few have ever thought that hiding in a box would make an effective real-world technique. Oh how wrong we all were.

A manhunt is underway in west Germany for a convicted drug dealer who escaped by mailing himself out of jail. The 42-year-old Turkish citizen--who was serving a seven-year sentence--had been making stationery in a prison workshop. At the end of his shift, the inmate climbed into a cardboard box and was taken out of prison by express courier. His whereabouts are still unknown.

The chief warden of the jail, Beate Peters, told the BBC this was an embarrassing incident: "For years I had been asking for more security guards from the government. But now they'll have to listen."

The prison authorities in Willich, near Duesseldorf, said the man, who was tall and broad-shouldered, had hidden in a box that was about 150cm by 120cm. When the weekly express courier arrived to pick up several boxes of merchandise, the one containing the prisoner was also loaded into the back of the lorry.

Shortly after it had passed through the prison gates, the inmate made his dash for freedom by cutting a big hole in the tarpaulin of the lorry and jumping off. The driver alerted the police after he noticed the tarpaulin flapping in the breeze.

The warden noted the man must have had accomplices outside the prison. "As soon as the prisoner jumped off the back of the lorry his friends would have picked him up," she told the BBC. "We have no idea where the fugitive is hiding. We assume that he is still in the county and is lying low before making his move."
