Homemade cloth rope aids St. Louis jail escape - Yahoo! News: "A 'knuckle-headed corrections officer' is to blame for the escape of two men who apparently climbed down a homemade rope Friday morning to escape from a St. Louis detention center, the mayor's chief of staff said.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported that Vernon Collins, 34, and David White, 33, were discovered missing just before 7 a.m., but police believe they might have been gone for 90 minutes by that time.
White was later caught at a gas station wearing what a station clerk described as a 'Bruce Lee wig,' the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported. He was taken into custody about 4 p.m. after police surrounded an older-model white Cadillac at a Phillips 66 station. Collins remained at large Friday afternoon."
