Handcuffed Man Nosedives Over Balcony While Fleeing Courthouse

A defendant appearing before a judge in a Utah courthouse tried to flee the authorities by running out of the room. I think he got some sense knocked into him from the fall he took shortly there after.

Security footage shows the handcuffed man bolting from the court and flipping over the railing of the second-floor balcony. He fell to the floor like a ton of bricks.

Christopher Clay Rudd broke his leg and pelvis and also fractured his skull. On top of the drug allegations he was already facing, the 35-year-old could face more charges for his escape attempt.
