Security breach in Swedish prison


I can't confirm the year (or even the veracity) of the incident; a Google image search took me to a Swedish blog, where I can't find it.  But I'd like to think it's true.

Addendum:  The tradition continues of readers quickly finding answers to puzzles I can't solve.  Within minutes of my posting it, Arenamontanus found the story in Aftonbladet, and MICHAEL found a report of the incident in 2002.  Thank you, guys.

    This seems to be a legit news story. A more full version can for example be found in the newspaper Aftonbladet 2006-08-16:

    The article notes that the prisoners did not leave any cake for the staff.

    You could secretly run an investigation firm without hiring anybody.
