The North Wales Police drone unit has released some infra-red drone footage of the moment when a police dog takes down a fleeing suspect.
In the video below, the police dog, PD ‘Guinness’, can be seen tracking the suspect, who is hiding ahead in some bushes.
As PD ‘Guinness’ gets near, the suspect decides to flee on foot as he runs along some railway tracks.
But, as you will see in the footage, it is not long before PD ‘Guinness’ grabs hold of the suspect and takes him to the ground.
The police dog then holds the suspect down until officers arrive and take the suspect into custody.
Officers confirmed that the male was arrested for being wanted on warrant and added: ‘The male ran off and quickly had the painful realisation that you cannot out run a police dog.’

WE NEED YOUR HELP.Here at Emergency Services News, we aim to tell you stories that the mainstream media are not interested in reporting. Whilst the MSM love to berate and ridicule the emergency services, who is there to report on the realities of serving on the front line?
Emergency Services News is currently a loss-making entity. But our team of volunteers, all former emergency services personnel, do not do it for the money.
We do it because we are sick and tired of the mainstream media constantly trying to undermine the men and women who put their lives on the line to keep you and your family safe.
How many MSM journalists who speak ill of the emergency services have actually dared to don the uniform and risk their own lives to save the life of a complete stranger?
