Watch the moment when police officers climb through a window to surprise a wanted man - who they found hiding under his mum’s bed after leaving his window open.

This was the comical moment when police sneak through an open window - to arrest a wanted man who was hiding under his mum’s bed.

Body-worn footage (click to play above) shows officers as they arrive at a property to make an arrest. When there is no answer at the door, the police are then seen walking around the premises, before one spots a window that has been left wide open.
