After a daring escape from prison, a convict got MORE than the deep freeze!
Like out of an O. Henry story of a bygone era, the harsh cold winter winds make staying inside a priority for everyone – including an escaped Kentucky prisoner.
For escaped con Robert Vick a prison cell is a LOT better than dealing with the polar vortex, reports CBS affiliate WKYT.
Vick, 42, escaped from a minimum security facility in Lexington, Ky. on Sunday where he was serving a six-year sentence for burglary concurrent with a five-year sentence for criminal possession of a forged instrument.
After his breakout, he only managed one day in the sub-zero elements before coolly realizing that there are far worse places to be than the proverbial slammer.
