Man runs away after being arrested, police are still looking for the fugitive

In Den Helder, a man fled while he was arrested. The man was already handcuffed by the police, but still saw his chance to run away. He is still wanted.

Police responded to a report of domestic violence. There they arrested a man, but that did not go according to plan. While the gentleman was already handcuffed, he saw the room run away. The police rushed after the fugitive, but without success. “It is not clear how this could have happened,” is the initial response of the police.

Police are still looking for the man. In their search, they entered a house belonging to an alleged friend of the man. There the police found a hot grinder, but not the man himself. The friend was not in the house either. “We have not found the handcuffs either, but we suspect that he has sharpened them loose.”
