Four prisoners are at-large after allegedly using a leaky toilet to make an escape from a jail by removing the toilet from the wall, officials said.
Six inmates from the Cocke County Jail Annex in Newport, Tennessee, USA made the escape on Christmas Day around 1:30 a.m. local time, the Cocke County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.
Two of them have since been captured.
The early-morning jailbreak was prompted by a water leak behind a toilet, the sheriff’s office said.
“The bolts holding the unit rusted out and there was prior damage to the concrete due to plumbing repairs,” said the sheriff’s office.
