    Two escape from an Argentine jail guarded by a dummy

    There are 15 guard towers, but only two are manned
    Two prisoners have escaped from a jail in Argentina, reportedly while it was using a dummy to man one of its guard towers.
    Prison staff said a lack of resources meant that only two out of their 15 guard towers were occupied at any given time.
    They told a local newspaper they put a football with a prison officer's cap in a third, to create the illusion of an extra guard.

    Bet he got kicked off duty after that!
