A video of a judge chasing down two inmates fleeing a courtroom in Washington has gone viral on social media. The security footage from the courthouse shows Judge RW Buzzard throwing his robe and dashing after the two inmates on Tuesday afternoon as they attempt to run away from the building.
The judge, in the end, succeeds in grabbing hold of one of the escapee just as he was about to exit the building. Reports state that the other escapee was also apprehended by authorities a few blocks away from the building.
