The truck hijacked by the inmates entered the prison complex to collect garbage.
"They (the inmates-ed) attacked a prison guard, injured him and drove the truck out of prison" local official Khin Thet Mar told AFP. Myanmar police said there were a total of 41 prisoners who escaped from Hpa-An prison. From the escaped inmates, as reported by Myanmar's national media, 10 of them have successfully been arrested again.
The pursuit of other inmates continues, with the police combed the villages near the prison. Kin Thet Mar said that the incident of inmates escaping from the prison frightened local villagers."They (runaway inmates) don't have anything to eat or money to use, so people might think inmates would threaten them to get what they want" he said.
Karen region which is the location of the prison is directly adjacent to Thailand. Kin Thet Mar said there was concern that inmates who tried to escape had crossed into Thai territory. The truck that was hijacked by the inmates was found trapped in a muddy area 200 kilometers from the road to the Thai border.
