STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:
Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. We're not sure what a Swedish man did to get into prison, but he displayed a kind of honor once locked up. The prisoner complained of a toothache. He says he couldn't get anyone to help him treat it. So according to Swedish media, the 51-year-old man escaped and went to a dentist, had his tooth pulled, and then turned himself in.
Police gave him a ride back to prison, and added one day onto his sentence.
