Officers from the District Police Headquarters in Złotoryja were carrying out a search for a 46-year-old resident of the county. – The man had been sentenced to six months in prison for a crime committed in the past, a sentence he had so far avoided – explains aspirant Dominika Kwakszys, press officer of the Złotoryja District Police Headquarters.
She adds:
While carrying out their duties, the officers went to the 46-year-old’s home. It turned out that the man was inside, but to avoid arrest, he hid from the officers in the attic.
The wanted man did not intend to surrender voluntarily. When he was spotted by one of the officers, he climbed through a window onto the roof of the two-story house and then made his way onto a tree growing nearby.
The spokesperson: – When he realized that he would no longer be able to escape, he voluntarily climbed down from the tree to the ground, where he was arrested by the officers.
The man was taken to police custody and then transported to prison, where he will serve his imposed sentence.
