NEW YORK (WABC) -- The autopsy of a New York prison escapee who was shot by police revealed that he was drunk at the time of his confrontation with an officer.
The lab results released Wednesday said Richard Matt had a blood alcohol content of .18% at the time of his death. That's more than twice the legal limit of .08 in New York.
A border control agent shot Matt near the Canadian border in June.
Police said Matt and David Sweat escaped from the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora.
