A ONE-legged prisoner escaped — by outpacing THREE able-bodied guards.
Michael Hill, 28, dashed away from a court car park “like a Paralympic sprinter”.


The amputee — who has a false leg — DASHED 200 yards, VAULTED a 5ft wall and two garden fences and VANISHED in a block of flats.


Suspected burglar Hill had been escorted outside to wait for transport after he was remanded in custody.


But guards left him without handcuffs because he was on crutches.


Suddenly, he ditched the supports and fled — leaving the three overweight guards puffing for breath in his wake.


A court security officer, who was too embarrassed to be named, said: “I can’t believe a man with one leg managed to run away. He was a really good actor.”


Hill — disabled in a pitbull attack — fled from Ealing Magistrates Court, West London, on Thursday as he waited to be taken to Wormwood Scrubs jail.


Another guard, who witnessed the drama, said: “I couldn’t believe it when I heard he had a false leg.


“He was like a sprinter in the Paralympics. The guards are fat and smoke too much so they couldn’t catch him.”

Hill, of Greenford, was charged with a domestic burglary.


A Ministry of Justice spokesman said: “Any escape is regrettable. The Prison Service will carry out a formal investigation.”
