          Suspect Escapes Jail, Is Eaten by

          PANAMA CITY (Reuters) - A 28-year-old Panamanian
          accused of killing a judge was eaten by a crocodile as he swam
          across a river after escaping from prison, police said on
          Thursday. 

           Oswaldo Martinez, accused of murdering judge Harmodio
          Mariscal on June 5 during a failed robbery in Panama City,
          was captured last week by police after fleeing to neighboring
          Costa Rica. 

          After being held in custody in Costa Rica, Martinez broke out
          of jail at the weekend and was aiming to reenter Panama
          through the dense jungle that divides the two Central
          American countries. 

          Martinez was eaten alive by the crocodile on Monday as he
          tried to swim across the River Terraba in southern Costa Rica,
          according to eyewitness reports confirmed by police on
          Thursday.
