Teen murder suspect who escaped from US hospital caught with handcuff key in pocket

Shane Pryor, 17, awaiting trial over October 2020 homicide, escaped from Children's hospital of Philadelphia last week

A teenager awaiting trial in a homicide case who escaped outside a Philadelphia hospital last week was captured on Sunday - with a handcuff key in one of his pockets, police said.

The key that Shane Pryor had on him at the time of his arrest is used to get out of restraints. But there is no evidence he ever used it, said Robert Clark of the US Marshals Service, who caught Pryor, according to the local news outlet WTXF.
