Suspect Escapes Jail After Overpowering Guards

San Mateo police say Zachary F. Lillard, 33, escaped from Santa Clara County jail by locking two guards in their cell and taking a uniform. He fled in a car taken from a motorist after a pursuit near Tracy. A jail officer opened an exit door, allowing his escape. Lillard was on the third floor when he overpowered a deputy escort and forced another into the cell. He then used the deputies’ uniform to move unseen. Authorities traced a sighting near Tracy but lost him in city traffic. The incident prompted a manhunt and highway patrol involvement.
