There are two sentences, which indicate that the fence is climbed by the prisoner. So, the prisoner must run towards the fence and not away from the fence.

So, options 2 and 3 are not correct here.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 1.

Improved sentence - The prisoner$ ran towards from the fence$ and climbed it in one go.$
