Three Italian inmates from near
Messina on Thursday broke out of a jail at Barcellona Pozzo di
Gotto. They were serving terms ranging between five and six
years for crimes linked to drug addiction, police said. The
three tore off a cast-iron window frame and fled, police said.
Police launched a manhunt for the trio while prison union SAPPE
said the break-out was "inevitable" given the slack security at
the jail.
