MONTPELIER, Vt. — An inmate who broke out of jail to go on a beer run was caught when he tried to sneak back in, officials said.
Mark Delude, 39, was reported missing Friday night from the St. Johnsbury work camp, but troopers arrived to find him inside the fence with a 24-pack of beer and a carton of cigarettes.
He apparently crawled under the fence, walked to a store, made his purchases and returned, officials said.
The camp is for nonviolent offenders. Delude was transferred to a more secure prison.
