Three escape from Cuyahoga County Juvenile
Boys make it to freedom through a loading dock door
Monday, February 8, 2010
(Cleveland) -- Freedom was short-lived for two of three teenagers who escaped from the Cuyahoga County Juvenile Detention Center on East 22nd Street Sunday night.
A 16-year-old charged in connection with a murder, and a 17-year-old held for robbery, were captured after four hours of freedom. A third teen, a 17-year-old charged with burglary, is still on the loose.
Juvenile Detention Center superintendent Len Munks says the three escaped by running past staff in the building’s dining room, kicking down a kitchen door, then getting outside through a loading dock door.
Munks says this was the first escape from the Cuyahoga County Juvenile Detention Center in eight years.
