dumbfounded when a woman detainee escaped from the municipal jail early July
14.
Acting provincial police
director P/Sr. Supt. Antonio Mendoza Jr. reported that jail guards of the
Marcos police noticed that Josephine Isip was no longer in her cell at around 5
am, July 14.

climbed up a broken ceiling using folded steel bar and escaped from
there.
Ms. Isip, a native of Pampanga
province but now residing at Barangay Lydia here in Marcos was arrested in a
drug buy-bust operation in the same barangay earlier. The Marcos police was
supposed to file a case against her at the Marcos Hall of Justice on July 18.

Ms. Isip was later
re-apprehended by the police.
