Handcuffed man drives off with police vehicle

A man escaped from police custody by driving off in an unmarked police vehicle while he was handcuffed.

The Guardian Newspaper reported that officers were on patrol at Syne Village, Siparia on Monday afternoon, where they stopped and searched a Nissan Wingroad vehicle.

In a bag belonging to a passenger, they allegedly found three 12-gauge shotgun cartridges.

The man was handcuffed and placed in the back seat of the police vehicle while the search continued, but he climbed into the drivers seat and drove off.

The vehicle was reportedly found abandoned on the Penal Quinam Road, and the man remains on the run.
