York County Sheriff's deputies tried to arrest Kevin Lawlor after a traffic stop, when they found materials from a metal shop in his vehicle. But deputies say Lawlor escaped, with handcuffs on his wrists, as they tried to bring another suspect into custody.
Sheriff's officials say Lawlor used a grinder to get the handcuffs off, and had burns on his hands as a result.
Lawlor is now charged with escape along with the charge connected with the alleged stolen property.
