Jailbreak turns into FAILbreak

What do you call it when a criminal's dreams literally come crashing down while trying to bust out of the poky? Oh, I think you know what that's called:
Authorities say an inmate trying to flee a Texas city jail crashed through the ceiling into a police chief's empty office.

Police say 17-year-old Jesus Albert Suarez Chavez and 22-year-old Roman Orozco Martinez tried to escape through air conditioning ducts of the Alton city jail around 3 a.m. Saturday, but had been spotted by a dispatcher monitoring security video.

One of the inmates fell through the ceiling into the office of Police Chief Baldemar Flores. The second inmate was trying to get into the vent.
The article goes on to say that the two are charged with "burglary of a vehicle, evading arrest, resisting arrest, assault on a public servant and making a terrorist threat." They sound charming, no?
