Second consecutive day of chase on Monday in Germany, where the police are trying to find an armed fugitive hidden in the Black Forest in the south-west of the country, in an operation worthy of the film "Rambo".
"Stay at home and don't take a hitchhiker with you," local police in Oppenau, in the southwest of the country, warned on Monday when the incident began on Sunday morning. Authorities on Twitter posted: "We are asking for your help in researching today's police operation in #Oppenau".

Dressed in a trellis, armed with a bow, a knife and one or more firearms, the fugitive is a homeless person known to the police. The man in his thirties has committed various crimes of illegal carrying of weapons.
An unarmed police patrol
On Sunday, he managed to disarm a police patrol that had come to dislodge him from a makeshift shelter and fled to the Black Forest. A hundred agents, including special forces and helicopters, set out to find him after fleeing to the Black Forest.
When the patrol arrived at his shelter, "he suddenly pulled out a gun and threatened the officers who did not have time to respond," said police, noting that the man "probably" took the flee with their service weapons.
