Man fleeing cops jumps fence — into prison

[Whisper]

CLEVELAND (AP) — Police say a motorist fleeing officers in Cleveland abandoned his car and jumped a fence — landing in what turned out to be a prison yard.

Garfield Heights police say the chase started in that suburb early Monday over a traffic violation and reached speeds of 90 mph.

Police say that after a race through several communities, the driver and a passenger bolted from the car and headed for a fence.

They apparently did not realize it was on the outside the state women’s prison in Cleveland.

They were arrested along with two other passengers who also tried to flee.

So...
How easliy could inmate get OUT, if this guy managed to jump in so oblivious to the fact it was a prison?

I'm with Kyle. If he could jump into the yard when he was being chased by police - How can't the women jump over the fence out?

It's probably a low security prison; such installations don't tend to have particularly high security levels.
