A homicide suspect was able to escape from police custody after he broke the handcuffs that he was in and climbed through the ceiling.

Alonso Perez escaped from a North Las Vegas Police Department, while detained in a questioning area.

The suspect was able to break the chain on the handcuffs, and then while using a chair, he retreated into the ceiling. From there, he was able to exit the building and steal a truck.

Police were able to track down Perez at a nearby apartment complex, but that doesn't make up for this mistake by the police department.

Perez is the suspect in the shooting death of Mohammed Robinson outside a McDonald’s restaurant in North Las Vegas.

PS, ignore the jersey the suspect had on in this video. He's not a representation of the Cowboy's fan base.
