A man who tried to sneak into Sing Sing in a prison employee's uniform last month to help at least two inmates escape has been arrested, officials said Wednesday. Two prisoners have been transferred as part of the investigation, said state police investigator Darren Daughtry. He wouldn't say if any employees were involved in the apparent escape attempt. Sing Sing was locked down May 7 after the uniformed man tried to get in. Officers let the man leave when he said he was new on the job and would get 'the appropriate paperwork' from his car. The man did not return. He was arrested on May 12 and charged with promoting prison contraband for allegedly trying to enter with 'dangerous items,' the investigator said Wednesday. Neither Daughtry nor Linda Foglia, spokeswoman for the Correction Department, would identify the man arrested or provide more details about the alleged escape attempt. |
