Of course he could, providing the reed was long enough to reach to the air above the water surfacer. He would not want to stay there very long though , and there is a strong chance he might suck water into his nostril, as well as fresh air. I doubt if he would have the time to cut off a reed that was sufficiently hollow , and sufficiently long to do the trick do you ? Fugitives usually have to operate pretty fast when they escape and they are usually not very smart people are they. On second thoughts, I doubt if it has ever been done successfully. It's a good story though !
