A man who says he fled an Austrian prison over a decade ago has turned himself in to police in Salzburg, telling them he was fed up with living in Spain’s Canary Islands.
Police said the 64-year-old, carrying two suitcases, went to police at Salzburg’s railway station on Saturday night and told them he was a fugitive prisoner who had just arrived from Munich Airport.
Police verified that he had fled a prison in eastern Austria. He was taken to a Salzburg jail.
