In short:
In western Germany a manhunt is underway for a convicted drug dealer who escaped by mailing himself out of jail.
A 42 year old man had been working with other inmates, making stationary, destined for shops. At the end of his shift, the man climbed into a cardboard box, and was taken out of prison by express courier. Where he is at the moment and what he is up to, is for now still unknown. The prison authorities in Willich, near Düsseldorf, said the man, who was tall and broad-shouldered, had hidden in a box that was about 150cm by 120cm. Shortly after it had passed through the prison gates, the inmate made his dash for freedom by cutting a big hole in the tarpaulin of the lorry and jumping off. The driver alerted the police after he noticed the tarpaulin flapping in the breeze.
Mariëtte's opinion:
I think that it is ridiculous that this man was able to escape in such a manner. How on earth is it possible in these days to escape this easily?! Weren’t there any guards at the time? Wasn’t there some sort of video surveillance? To me it sounds like as escape from a film, not something that happens in real life.
It is a very embarrassing accident for this prison and it should be carefully looked at for this not to happen again. There should be more guards and other types of security because this should not have happened in the first place.

It sounds so funny, that it almost is genious to me. You are right; this is just like a movie scene, and yet it happened. Good one for the criminal, but it really shows the lack of security in prison as well.
