Watch where you hide when you escape the police

Did you hear the one about the burglar who was arrested but managed to escape?

Brian Valentino had been arrested for burglary and as he was being transported to the Onondaga County Jail in Syracuse last week he kicked out the back window of the police car and dove out of the opening.

Even though he was still handcuffed he managed to run a short distance to a nearby building. He entered the building and ran down a hallway and hid behind a door.

Unfortunately Valentino’s hiding place was inside the County Sheriffs office. Valentino must have missed the big yello star on the entrance when he was looking for a hiding place. He was discovered when a retired deputy working part time in the building noticed the handcuffed and snow covered man running into the lobby.

The deputy held Valentino down until the police men that he’d escaped from entered the building and collected him again. Naturally the man now faces charges of attempted escape as well as the original burglary charges.
