The one that got away--again

Man, it sounds like this guy is one slippery bastard:
The leader of a notorious gang of armed robbers in the Philippines, re-arrested by police after months on the run, escaped again on Friday in a scene straight out of a Hollywood blockbuster.

Eight men with M16 rifles blocked a police van transporting Pedro Rodica to a Manila jail allowing him to break free of his guards.

"I must say that this particular incident is unfortunate," said Avelino Razon, the national police chief.
And I must say that you've got a real talent for understatement there, chief.
He had first escaped from his guards in December when he was being taken to court.

"The Philippine National Police will not let this pass, the long arm of the law will soon catch up with him," Razon said.
You know, chief, catching up with him doesn't really sound like the hard part.
