Man from psychiatric facility flees and surrenders
A 43-year-old inmate of a forensic clinic in the Minden-Lübbecke district surrendered to authorities after a week on the run. The man failed to return to the facility in Stemwede from an authorised outing, prompting emergency responders to launch a search.
Shortly afterwards, the wanted man appeared at a police station together with his lawyer and gave himself up. Officers confirmed the arrest in the evening. Investigators did not disclose what crime the man had originally committed.
In a forensic psychiatric facility, convicted persons are held who were not or only partially accountable due to a mental disorder or dependency. The therapy serves both the rehabilitation of the patient and the protection of the public from further offences.
