What happened to the three men who escaped from Alcatraz? In June 1962, brothers Clarence and John Anglin and Frank Morris attempted to escape from the inescapable water-bound prison, Alcatraz, located on Alcatraz Island in the San Francisco Bay on the coast of California.
The facility is perhaps most famous for its forbidding location, isolated on a rocky island in the middle of San Francisco Bay. In the three decades that Alcatraz was in operation, there were only 14 escape attempts involving 36 men, according to the FBI.
