A British man has been stopped by police after allegedly trying to flee Australia on a jet ski.
The man set off from Cape York in northern Queensland on Monday, apparently hoping to reach Papua New Guinea - a distance of just over 90 miles.Officers were tipped off about a man"possibly armed with a crossbow and carrying additional fuel and supplies" launching a jet ski from the peninsula. Various agencies chased the man and his jet ski across the Torres Strait and stopped them just a few miles short of Papua New Guinea.The man, 57, was not publicly identified but was taken by police back as far as Thursday Island off the Queensland coast.
He's probably wanted for being a peeping Tom
Yeah, nah.
If I win the lottery I’ll buy myself a boat and test out Merseyside Police at dawn to see how long it takes them to give me friendly words of advice. My estimate is 30 mins tops.
He might have made Suez, but the UK? Naaa
Good grief how nuts is this story.
And now he's a prisoner of Australia lol
