A jail escapee heads for bar but never gets to enjoy happy hour.
After breaking out of a holding cell in Pennsylvania, Timothy Bonner stopped at a bar and had a beer.
Police say the 40-year-old was arrested on an assault charge. Police had removed his handcuffs and placed him in the cell when Bonner allegedly knocked the cell door and ran away.
Bonner first stopped at a house to borrow a pair of shoes before heading to the bar. A customer treated him for a beer and the suspect admitted escaping from jail.
Bonner didn’t get to enjoy the beer before police arrested him.
Bonner now faces additional charges to his original assault arrest, and a strong thirst on top of that.
