Imprisoned men briefly threaten jail escape in Franklin
In Franklin Indiana two prisoners held on minor charges, James Lamphere and Joseph Meers, were overpowered by two inmates held on murder charges. The attackers tied them to a makeshift gallows from a mattress cover and tried to force release with threats of violence. Police and troopers swarmed the Franklin jail, and the perpetrators retreated to solitary confinement.
