UNION SPRINGS, Ala. (AP) - Dreaming of ways to break out of jail is pretty normal.
But for the second time in less than a month, police have arrested a man for trying to break into the Bullock County Jail.
Police said Ellis Hudson, 40, of Union Springs was arrested and charged with third-degree criminal trespassing after he was caught inside the fence of the jail on Feb. 21.
Union Springs Police Chief Jake Wheeler said he suspects Hudson was trying to smuggle tobacco to an inmate, since Hudson had pipe tobacco, three packs of cigarettes and rolling papers in his possession.
"There's no smoking in the jail," Wheeler said. "Someone could probably get $2 for a cigarette in there."
In early February, police arrested another man for allegedly attempting to break into the jail. Officers suspected he was trying to smuggle marijuana into the jail.
Hudson was released on $500 bail after spending the night in the jail.
Is breaking into jail a hot new trend? How do you punish someone who wants to get into the jail?
