I found this text in a book I use in my class. I changed it a bit and added some reading comprehension questions: type of ducment, right and wrong... I use it as an introduction to the past simple. There are regular and irregular verbs in this text. It´s a newspaper article about a gangster that has just escaped from prison. The answer key is on pages 3 and 4. Hope you like it.
