Inmate uses Xmas lights to escape from jail
MARSHFIELD, Mo. | Webster County officials aren’t taking the attempted escape of a jail inmate lightly.

Authorities say they arrested 17-year-old Shane Sartin this morning along a highway after he broke out of the Webster County jail Thursday night using a string of Christmas lights to climb down from a third-story exercise area in the county courthouse.

They say the Christmas lights broke and Sartin apparently injured his back falling to the ground.

He still got away, however, and changed from his orange prison jumpsuit to sweats and T-shirt before officers found him.

1. Better ramp up the "War on Christmas," now that it's clearly aiding and abetting prison breaks. . .
