Truro Rooftop Standoff Cyclist

[Volvo1956]

Nice little earner for the emergency services.... plenty of overtime.
Nice lump of tax payers wonga.
On completion the half wit will get a slapped wrist free medical services.... with not a penny to pay and not even his bike compensated.
Oh and insurance company paying for his damage caused raising premiums again.

More likely just diverted from other duties.

Take note firemen and women:

Crisps and water?

Pffffft. Amateurs...


...shouldn't it be coffee and popcorn, and comfortable chairs?


ps: Point of (Royal Antediluvian) order (Of Pedantry). Those are not slates. They are tiles. Made in molds. Big difference, especially if you specify the wrong material on a Listed Building planning application...

Target practice for the local shooting club shirly!

Why is he up there and what is his protest about ?
I can't find this explained anywhere.

Oh dear! Never mind.

Anyway, back on track this must be the same bloke who was chucking tiles off a (ex) bank roof in Brighton the other week. Proved that Sussex police cars don't like tiles/slates or whatever thrown at them either.

They've got him down then, after 28 hours.

I would have thought this was a Florida Man story if it didn't say Truro Ok perhaps not a wacky crack or other vice led motive, unless we hear someone round the back of ASDA told him there was buried treasure under the roof tiles of that exact house.

One lately where the guy was on this convenience store roof plastered in tar, he told the police he was only trying to visit his relatives
