SAINT-JEROME, Quebec – Quebec provincial police are searching for two inmates who made a daring escape by helicopter from a prison in Saint-Jerome.
Police found the helicopter about 53 miles (85 kilometers) away in Mont-Tremblant, and say the chopper's pilot has been taken to a hospital where he will be questioned by investigators.
Authorities say the two prisoners remain at large after the escape on Saturday.
The identities of the two men are not being revealed.
The Saint-Jerome prison, located about 37 miles (60 kilometers) northwest of Montreal, experienced a mini-riot by about a dozen prisoners a little over a month ago.
In that incident, police were called in to secure the outside of the prison, which holds about 480 inmates, and prison staff used pepper spray to disperse the mob.
