police shine a light through the grass and look for traces of Mr. A in his 20s who ran away.



Mr. A was waiting for a corona 19 test before entering the Uijeongbu prison at around 3:45 pm yesterday, and fled to take advantage of the gap.



Person A, who was being tried on charges of theft, failed to attend the trial several times without permission, and an arrest warrant was issued, and was arrested and imprisoned on another charge.



At the time of the escape, Mr. A was wearing plain clothes and handcuffs, and he left his cell phone near the prison to avoid being pursued.



The police, who had been chasing A's whereabouts all night, conducted a search for the second day using drones and detection dogs today.



In addition, we are interrogating Mr. A's family and acquaintances, and checking the card payment history owned by Mr. A.
