AFP - South African police are searching for a prisoner with no legs who managed to escape "unnoticed" from a hospital, the Saturday Star reported.
"Two months later, he is still on the run (or should that be crawl?) and the law enforcement authorities appear to be stumped," it said.
The newspaper said that Francois Johannes Pieterse, who had been serving a 10-year sentence in the east coast city of Durban for fraud and impersonating a doctor, was taken to a hospital there, but escaped in July.
The guard assigned to him has been charged with negligence.
