Car Theft Suspect Escapes Police Custody in Philadelphia

Alleem Bordan, 29, fled from officers outside a hospital despite being handcuffed, prompting an intense search.

Alleem Bordan, 29, escaped police custody at Temple University Hospital’s Episcopal Campus in Philadelphia after being arrested for car theft.
Despite being handcuffed, Bordan fled from officers while being discharged from the hospital, leading to an intense search and temporary school lockdowns.
Bordan has a history of arrests, including for vehicle thefts and an escape attempt in 2020, but is not considered dangerous.
He was last seen wearing a blue and black plaid shirt, blue jeans, and brown boots, and anyone with information on his whereabouts is encouraged to contact police.
This is not the first recent escape from Philadelphia authorities; a teenager awaiting trial escaped from a juvenile detention center in January but was recaptured five days later.
