Dispatch on 10, we have a man in the bay. Man in the bay with a gun. Um, we have one officer shot. I'm unclear which jurisdiction it is. There's another officer there trying to get him into the ER at this time. He just left to go back into the bay to see if he can confront the man with the gun. >> We got multiple units rolling 23.

HERE, ask Use your actual strength to break that door. >> Correction officers were escorting inmate Skyler Meade, a high-risk prison gang member, out of the hospital when gunfire suddenly erupted. Outside, Nicholas Umpherville, his armed accomplice, was waiting. Shots rang out. Officers were hit. The scene collapsed into chaos within seconds. And in that moment, Meade slipped free. A coordinated ambush is not just an escape, but the start of something far more violent. >> It It was not working. >> Here, ask Use your actual strength to break that door. >> Is he shot? >> We don't know. SOMEBODY GET THIS OPEN. >> MOVE! GET IT GET OUT OF THE WAY! >> JUST BREAK IT. >> HERE, COVER THAT WAY. >> THAT ONE MIGHT BE EASIER TO GET. >> Stay low. Stay low. Stay low. Stay low. Stay low. Wait. >> Take your time. >> We got a gunman in the hospital. Can you come over here and open this door for us? Hey, don't go inside. Can you do it from the outside? >> Uh probably, yes.

That's his in here. >> He's in there, yeah. >> Correction officer in there? Just now. No, damn it. >> In the chaos of the ambush, a responding Boise officer, Wayne Anderson, mistakenly shot an IDOC officer after misidentifying him as the suspect in the hospital's entryway. Despite the friendly fire incident, no charges were filed against the officer because his actions were deemed a perceived necessity in a high-stress active shooter environment. The confusion was compounded by a critical communication breakdown. The officers arriving on the scene were never notified that the suspects had already fled the bay, leading them to believe they were still engaging an active threat inside the building. >> Can we open that? Open it up. You got a track on him? Boise police, how do we open this? >> Somebody with uh security. >> Hey, Wayne, go There's somebody in there yelling. There's somebody in there yelling. How do we get this open? >> That's our I mean, no one is like >> Somebody Somebody shot They're yelling. Oh, they're treating him. Okay, I didn't know that. Okay, I thought he was in there.

I >> It's okay. >> I got >> Two sealed in the back.

On our way down. >> All right, got it. >> The ambush at Saint Alphonsus triggered a massive 36-hour manhunt that stretched across state lines. It ended 130 miles away in Twin Falls. Detectives tracked a lead to a residential neighborhood where a high-risk takedown finally forced Meade and Umphreyville into handcuffs. But the cost of their short-lived freedom was devastating. While on the run, the pair murdered two innocent men, James Money and Gerald Henderson, to secure getaway vehicles. The legal fallout was absolute. In July 2024, Skyler Meade was initially sentenced to life in prison for the Ada County charges, which included escape by a convicted felon, possession of controlled substances, and the contraband used to coordinate the break from inside. Nicholas Umphreyville received a life sentence later that year for aiding and abetting the escape and two counts of aggravated battery on law enforcement for the hospital shooting. However, the most severe consequences followed in January 2026. To avoid the death penalty, both men entered pleas for two counts of first-degree murder. Skyler Meade was sentenced to two consecutive life terms without the possibility of parole. While Umphreyville was handed a fixed life sentence with no chance of release. Three officers were left wounded and two innocent lives were taken all for a 36-hour escape that ended in total defeat and a permanent life behind bars. >> [snorts]
