Three inmates escape Quebec jail on helicopter

Three prisoners, deemed extremely dangerous by police, have broken out of a Canadian jail in a helicopter, local media reported, the second such daring jailbreak recently in Quebec. In March 2013, two inmates were lifted on a hijacked helicopter from a prison north of Montreal. They were both quickly re-arrested, along with the two accomplices who had helped get them out. Police are now asking for the public's help in tracking down Yves Denis, 35, Denis Lefebvre, 53, and Serge Pomerleau, 49 - all accused of mafia ties.
