Search continues for escaped inmate who outran 2 officers

The search continues for 29-year-old escaped prisoner Alleem Bordan who outran Philadelphia Police while handcuffed early Monday morning.

Searches have scoured the city over the past several months as news of prisoners escaping custody in Philadelphia has become more and more frequent.

The latest unfolded earlier this week when 29-year-old Alleem Bordan outran two police officers while handcuffed. 

Bordan was being discharged from a hospital in Kensington when he took off on foot. Video captured him sprinting through a parking lot with his hands still cuffed behind his back.

Police have yet to locate the prisoner as their search continues into a second day.
