He tries to flee by car, on foot and even in the water, but his hiding spot isn’t as good as he thought."Jumping under a dock if you're looking for a hiding spot from the police is really risky. You know, what if the tide comes in?" criminal defense attorney and legal analyst Lance Fletcher said.

And the one thing you would not want to hear are any sirens or warnings of an escaped prisoner,” said Taylor. “So if it were happening multiple times? I'd have great, great reservations.”Attic, Huh?Elsewhere in Florida, a man wanted by the cops on drug trafficking charges decides to bolt. He strikes a road crew worker and continues to run, finally landing in one off-the-wall hiding place."A lot of times, criminals, the first time they do something, might do something that's just barely a crime, or they're just sticking their toe in the water to see what's going to happen," noted Fletcher. "But over time, if nothing happens, if there are no serious consequences, that same person might become more and more bold and brazen."To check out these outrageous escape attempts, watch the latest episode of the Very Local original series, "Crimes, Cons and Capers," titled "Hide and Seek," by downloading the Very Local app for free."Crimes, Cons and Capers" is a fast-paced look at headline-grabbing crimes and far-fetched escapades across the country.What is Very Local?Very Local is a streaming app where you can watch local news, original series and more.
