A man tried to hide underneath floorboards to evade police hunting for him in Fife.

It is understood the 58-year-old, who was wanted in connection with six warrants, was caught out when he made a noise and alerted officers to his presence.

He was arrested and detained at the address in Durward Street, Leven on Tuesday. He had been subject to apprehension warrants in relation to drugs offences and an assault.

Following the arrest police tweeted a light-hearted reference to a video from BBC documentary Planet Earth II, which shows an iguana running away from a group of snakes.
