Two inmates climbed up a rope into a hijacked helicopter as they staged a Hollywood-style prison break in Canada.
Benjamin Hudon-Barbeau, 36, and 33-year-old Danny Provencal made their escape from Quebec's Saint Jerome jail northwest of Montreal - but were recaptured hours later.
The pair were arrested along with two others around 30 miles away, with Provencal eventually surrendering peacefully after barricading himself inside a building.
Quebec Provincial Police Sgt Benoit Richard said wardens told officers that Hudon-Barbeau and Provencal had grabbed a rope dropped from the helicopter to make their getaway.
He said helicopter used in the escape on Sunday afternoon was tracked to Mont Tremblant, around 53 miles away from the jail, but that only the pilot was still at the scene.
He added that the pilot - who he described as "an important witness" - was taken to a local hospital and was treated for shock.
A Montreal radio station, 98.5 FM, said it received a call on Sunday from a man claiming to be Hudon-Barbeau, who said he was "ready to die" as he tried to evade police.
"The way they're treating me in there, it's unreal," the man told the radio station.
"They won't let me be. They put me back in prison for nothing."
Authorities did not immediately respond to the claims made in the radio station interview.
Police say Hudon-Barbeau was arrested in November on two firearm-related charges and associating with people who have a criminal record.
The arrest came as part of an investigation of a double murder in Quebec.
Yves Galarneau, the correctional services manager who oversees the jail, said he had never seen anything like the dramatic escape in more than three decades on the job.
"As far as I know, it's a first in Quebec," he said. "It's exceptional."
