Within the last 24 hours 6 prisoners have escaped from a Merced County jail. Apparently, the men used a homemade rope to get onto the roof of the prison & then scaled down the side of it to escape. The men are now on the loose and said to be armed & dangerous! The security in that jail definitely are going to be in hot water after letting six men get out and get away without being noticed. The public are encouraged to be on the lookout!
