An escaped Ohio murderer -- nabbed this week in Minnesota -- had sawed his way to freedom 37 years ago.
Oscar Juarez, 66, gunned down a Toledo man in 1975 but busted out of the Marion Correctional facility three years later using a hacksaw blade.
He left a dummy sleeping in his prison cot and has been on the lam ever since, living under various aliases.
But, this month, Juarez’s running days ended when St. Paul officials caught wind of their ignominious guest and joined forces with a cold case unit in Ohio and federal agents to bring him to justice.
A spokesman for the U.S. Marshals proudly announced today that one of the nations’ “most wanted” and “sought after” fugitives is in custody again.
Oscar Juarez is now expected to resume serving his original life sentence, and then some.
