The Austrian escaped from house arrest, the police chased him in the Znojmo region

Austrian police turned to their colleagues in the Czech Republic on Sunday morning, the prisoner was driving them in a car and it looked like he was going to the Czech Republic, which eventually happened. He was supposed to be a dangerous perpetrator who threatened to have a weapon.

One of the patrols caught a suspicious car in the village of Hnanice and set off after it with the beacons and horn on.

“The driver promptly turned onto a dirt road and headed for the Podyjí National Park. After about two kilometers, the Znojmo police managed to catch up with the fleeing man. He gave up in vain as they began to overtake him. Under the threat of a firearm aimed, the foreigner obeyed and then wore handcuffs and then traveled to the police cell in Znojmo, “said police spokeswoman Lenka Drahokoupilová on Tuesday.

A 22-year-old man was sentenced by a court in Austria to four years in prison for robbery and theft with a weapon. He is currently serving the rest of his sentence with a bracelet on his leg in house arrest.

“However, he forcibly removed the electronic device from his leg and fled. International judicial cooperation is now under way to extradite him to Austria, ”the spokeswoman added.
