Hesse: wet escape attempt failed

Bad Schwalbach (dpa/lhe) - The attempt by a man wanted with an arrest warrant to flee from the police by jumping into a river went horribly wrong in Bad Schwalbach (Rheingau-Taunus district). As the police announced on Sunday, a patrol discovered the man on Friday evening near a supermarket. When he saw the police, he immediately fled and jumped into the nearby Wisper. On the other bank, he was arrested by the officers who had used a bridge ten meters away. They took the "pretty wet fugitive" to the police station and discovered amphetamine on the "well-known person". The man was then taken to the nearest correctional facility.
