Man wearing only his underwear is caught on camera climbing out of bathroom wall after being found by Wigan police officers

Greater Manchester Police say they were looking for the man in connection with two domestic violence offences, a driving offence and because he was wanted on recall to prison.

Footage of the moment he was arrested, as he climbed out of a hole in a bathroom wall wearing only boxer shorts, has been shared by the force on social media.

A tweet said: "#ARREST | Some people go to extreme lengths to evade police but this wanted man was today found hiding in a wall at an address in #Merseyside by our #Wigan District Tasking Team. It's fair to say we'll quite literally go through walls to catch those that we're after!"
