Place one hand on the wall in front of you, and then put the opposite foot on the wall behind you. This is how a convicted killer escaped from a prison near Philadelphia nearly a week ago, according to surveillance video released by the authorities on Wednesday. After that, officials said, he pushed through razor wires — installed after the previous inmate scaled the same wall — before reaching the prison’s roof. He ran across the roof, scaled a fence, pushed his way through more razor wire, and has eluded the police ever since. He added that officials should have further “bolstered” the prison’s defenses following the previous escape attempt.
