A man in the Australian city of Perth escaped mandatory quarantine in a hotel by scaling down a rope made of tied together bedsheets from a fourth-floor window, police said on Tuesday.
The
man was told to leave the state within 48 hours and taken to a hotel
for temporary quarantine, but just before 1:00 a.m. on Tuesday (17:00
GMT on Monday) "he climbed out a window of the fourth floor room using a
rope made of bed sheets and fled the area," Western Australia Police
said in a Facebook post.
They also posted photos the makeshift rope hanging from a window on the brick building's top floor down to the street.
Police
arrested the man across town about 8 hours later, and charged him with
failing to comply with a direction and providing "false/misleading
information." They did not disclose the man's identity except to say
that he was aged 39 and tested negative to the virus, nor did they give a
reason for his alleged actions.
Australia has recorded far fewer coronavirus cases and deaths than
many other developed countries partly because it closed national and
internal borders and imposed mandatory hotel quarantine for anyone arriving from abroad or - during outbreaks - another state.
The
policy has however brought with it a series of escapes, including a
woman accused this month of climbing down two balconies and kicking in a
door to evade quarantine in north-east regional hub of Cairns.
