SYDNEY (Reuters) - A prisoner lost some 30 pounds so he could squeeze
through a hole he chiseled in a brick wall and escape from a maximum
security jail in Sydney.

Robert Cole, 36, who was serving time for stealing and assault, was being
treated in the Long Bay prison hospital when he broke out of jail Tuesday
night or early Wednesday morning.

New South Wales state Corrective Services deputy commissioner Ian McLean
told reporters it appeared Cole had deliberately lost weight so he could
slip through the crack in the wall.

"It certainly looks like it to me," McLean said on Wednesday.

After squeezing through a small hole next to a window in the hospital wall,
Cole scaled a wire fence crowned with razor wire and then walked along a
prison wall, before jumping to freedom.

There were no guards on the prison wall overnight, as jail authorities
relied on surveillance cameras and sensor detectors to stop night
jailbreaks. Long Bay's security manager has been stood down pending an
investigation, said McLean.

Moral of story: Anyone trying to lose
weight should be thrown in prison?

How about: Anyone trying to lose weight should act like a man in prison
wanting to get out.

Well, it would be tough for me to act
like a man, being female and all that,
but I'll try :)
