1 min read

A third man wanted for escaping Police custody in Levin on Wednesday 21 August has been located. 

The 27-year-old man was arrested in Shannon at around 2.30pm today. 

He will appear in the Palmerston North District Court tomorrow. 

Earlier last week Police arrested a 30-year-old and a 23-year-old who escaped together with the man.

We would like to thank members of the public for their support and cooperation while Police conducted operations to locate the three offenders.
