IONIA, Mich.

After losing the woman he abducted and ditching her Jeep in an Indiana town, authorities say Michael David Elliot made his way to another Indiana community, where he stole another vehicle.

No one was injured in the chase, and the abducted woman also wasn't hurt. Authorities are now left to sort out exactly how Eliot was able to get out of the Michigan prison. Fences were equipped with motion sensors to alert guards. The fences also carry electric current to shock anyone who touches them. "It appears that did not happen. ...
