This news story documents an attempted jailbreak from Midland County Jail by a convicted murderer who was being returned to the Texas Department of Corrections that week after several months in Midland County Jail. The inmate used a gun he had hidden to hold deputies at gunpoint and lock them up while he made a run for it. Sheriff Dallas Smith talks to CBS7’s Conrad Coleman about the escape, noting that the Sheriff’s office does not search visitors to the jail, so a visitor may have brought the inmate a weapon.
