A man’s short flight for freedom ended this week after authorities say he used a wheelchair as his cover, then jumped out of the chair and took off running just minutes before he was scheduled to be in court.

Content partner KARK said the Pulaski County Sheriff’s Office released the video showing Joel Delgado, 41, escaping custody Monday.

After he ran away, he took off across the street to a nearby cab and left. However, he was later arrested on West 65th Street in Little Rock.

Delgado was facing residential burglary and possession of a firearm charge when he fled from deputies. However, he is expected to face escape charges in the case, KARK reported.

Delgado told deputies that he was injured after he was caught. He was taken to a hospital to be checked out.

However, authorities said once he was discharged from the hospital, he was brought back to the Pulaski County jail in a wheelchair, KARK said.

Pulaski County authorities also said they are reviewing the video footage of the escape to find out if the department’s inmate transfer procedures need to be changed.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KKTV) - A near-deadly crash was caught on camera in Colorado as authorities use the incident as a startling example of why the “Move Over” law was created.

Dash cam footage of the crash can be viewed at the top of this article. The dramatic scene played out on Tuesday in Adams County along I-25 at about 11:35 a.m. According to Colorado State Patrol, Master Trooper Travis Hood stopped a Kia sedan near 58th Avenue for speeding. The vehicle pulled over onto the large shoulder to the left of the HOV lane. As Master Trooper Hood was walking from the Kia to his motorcycle, a Dodge minivan smashed into the back of the Kia. Master Trooper Hood didn’t hesitate and immediately jumped into action to check on everyone involved while calling for assistance.

The driver of the Kia had “moderate” injuries. The driver of the minivan was from Avondale and had minor injuries. There were two passengers in the minivan who had “moderate” injuries. The driver of the minivan was cited for careless driving causing injury.

“Every day law enforcement officers and other roadway workers put themselves at risk in an effort to improve safety on our roadways,” says Colonel Matthew Packard, Chief of the Colorado State Patrol. “Sadly incidents like these happen with incredible frequency and we are fortunate that a bigger tragedy didn’t play out yesterday on I-25. We are sharing this footage because it underscores the responsibility of drivers to move over and pay attention behind the wheel. There is no excuse for driving past any stopped vehicle at this rate of speed.”
