A 27-year-old man threw himself out of the second floor window of the Nantes police station on Sunday. He was in custody for possession of narcotics.
The day before, he had tried to escape from the hospital. Emergency services intervened to help him and take him back to the hospital, where his life is not in danger. In 2020, a man also escaped from the police station through the window, before being caught in the surrounding area. The incident was heard in the context of a drug case, and took place in the presence of an investigator and his lawyer. The man's life is in no danger, according to the latest information, and he is being treated at the hospital in Nantes. The hearing had started well, but the person in custody was not at his first attempt to flee. He would have had to explain it if he hadn't opened the window and taken everyone by surprise and ended up on the sidewalk, Le Figaro reports. The event took place at noon on Sunday, and was reported by the local press. The suspect was taken to the Waldeck Rousseau jails.
