skipped

The New York Times revealed that when Cher was an infant, out of desperation her mother abandoned her at a children's home in Scranton, Pennsylvania and skipped town.

The family of Halyna Hutchins, the late "Rust" cinematographer, have skipped the premiere of "Rust" at the Camerimage Festival in Poland.

"He replied he was on the Russian convoys during World War Two so was well-used to it. When we docked, he skipped off - while his wife had to be helped off."

Agencies that skipped paying employment taxes could underbid the competition, said Mr. Perez, who offered to name firms that were “underpricing and skimming.”

Word got out that Paez had snitched, and he skipped town.
