| CUIABA, Brazil – Police on Sunday morning caught a 26-year-old man trying to trade places with his brother, 27, an inmate in the Mata Grande Penitentiary. The incident took place during a family visit on Christmas morning. The prison is located in Rondonopolis, 210 km (130 miles) from the state capital, Cuiaba.

According to police, the visit went normally, but the guards soon realized their mistake. While checking the visitor sign-in sheet, they noticed that the signature that the visitor made when he signed in did not match the signature he made when he left.
Guards reacted immediately and stopped the escaping prisoner just outside the prison gates, where they found him in the company of a former cell mate. Both the prisoner and the brother – who was already behind bars – were arrested.
