A Nevada inmate on work detail near Incline Village on Tuesday decided to take a break at the Hyatt.

The minimum security inmate crew with the Nevada Department of Corrections was working in the forest on a fuel reduction project on Tuesday when Grant walked away.

Grant is in prison for burglary and grand larceny of a motor vehicle.
