RANDOLPH — Wearing leg irons and partly handcuffed, a local man made a brief escape from a Coos County deputy sheriff while being transported Thursday and managed to flee to his own car before getting his vehicle stuck on a snowmobile trail.

Coos County Sheriff Brian Valerino said Robert Howard, 33, of Pinkham B Road was being transferred from the Woodstock police station to the state prison in Berlin after being picked up on a parole violation.
