Suspect tries to run away from police in Wigan – despite wearing a hi-vis jacket

After being stopped by the Special constables, the man bolted from the vehicle and attempted to evade officers – even though he was wearing high-visibility clothing.

According to a post by GMP Wigan West on their Facebook page, the man “decided to try his hand at some Parkour” before being detained by patrols.

The post added: “He was unable to provide any valid insurance for the vehicle, or even a driving licence.

“Further inquiries on the male showed that he was wanted for three offences (which would explain his sudden interest in the outdoor activities!).

" The male was then arrested so that he could attend the next available court date.”
