Inmate 'escapes prison – by pretending to be his cellmate who was due to be freed'

Escape GETTY/GETTY DARING: The prisoner posed as his cellmate who was due for release
Cops were called to the prison after the 19-year-old inmate was mistakenly let go.
Officers say the daring detainee "altered his appearance to look like his cellmate".
He then reportedly stepped forward when officers came looking to release the other inmate.
The Ontario prisoner also allegedly threatened his cellmate – telling him to keep quiet when the officers came by.
Cops say an arrest warrant has been issued for the lucky escapee.
It's not the first time cops have made a gaffe this week.
On the other side of the pond, cops launched a manhunt for a convicted robber after they released him by mistake.
Ryan Byrne, 34, was accidentally freed from Wandsworth Prison in south London, Scotland Yard said.
He was later snapped taunting cops by posting pictures of him posing next to a police van and having a pint in a pub.
