Perhaps if his escape didn't involve driving a golf cart on the freeway, he would have been a little less conspicuous
​It probably should be first stated that Timothy Gregory was a resident of St. Mary's Medical Center, where he was a mental patient. And since mental facilities aren't usually good places to hang out, he decided to pull a fire alarm, then punch a 59-year-old female security guard to escape.

But apparently hasn't been out in the real world for awhile. Instead of swiping a trusty American-made automobile, he carjacked the guard's not-so-trusty golf cart, the drove it on highway I-95, which made him a little conspicuous.

West Palm Beach, Florida police were naturally able to catch him after seeing him swerve in and out of traffic. After a tussle with the cops, Gregory admitted that he "pushed an old lady out and commandeered it" in his escape. He's been charged with carjacking, battery, resisting arrest and driving a golf cart without wearing any pastel clothing item.
