CALLING ALL CARS! APB!! Detained 'drug smuggler' cat escapes Sri Lanka prison

A cat detained at Sri Lanka's main prison while allegedly trying to smuggle drugs and cell phone SIM cards has escaped, media reports said Monday.



The feline was detected by jail intelligence officials on Saturday at the high-security Welikada Prison, a police official said.

But it escaped on Sunday from a prison room where it was kept, the Aruna newspaper said.

There was no immediate comment from prison authorities.
