Six inmates from the Echo Glen Children’s Center in Snoqualmie are back in custody after a late-night escape on Saturday, Sept. 22.
The group of boys, three 14-year-olds and three 15-year-olds, assaulted a guard at the detention facility around 11:10 p.m.
Before fleeing into nearby woods the boys knocked out the guard, stole her keys and radio, and locked her in a room, where she was found, still unconscious, 20 minutes later by other inmates.
