Everyone hates it when plans fall apart - and this woman probably hated the way this plan unfolded when she fell through a ceiling. 

In an apparent jailbreak in Ohio, a woman reported to be inmate Jessica Boomershine, who was arrested for allegedly breaking into an 85-year-old’s home and assaulting him at gunpoint — was caught on camera calling out of the ceiling of the waiting room where she was being held.

The surveillance video was uploaded by the New York Post and shows the suspect standing on a chair and wiggling through the ceiling before falling. On her way down, police officers tried to break her fall by reaching out to catch her. The woman was not injured during the incident but was charged with destruction of property and attempting to escape.
