Dangerous Women Escape From Maryland Mental Hospital
Two dangerous women Ramona Sensabaugh of Roanoke Virginia and Grace Mahan of Hyattsville Maryland overpowered a hospital attendant, escaped from Spring Grove State Hospital near Catonsville. The attendant Betty Nichols of Elliott City was restrained, then released unharmed after the pair fled into a wooded area two miles away. Nichols later returned to the hospital. The incident follows reports of homicidal tendencies among the escapees as hospital officials confirm the break occurred while Nichols was on duty.
