***  WATCH ***  FLEEING SUSPECT FOUND STUCK INSIDE CHIMNEY!

FALL RIVER, MASSACHUSETTS – [BEYOND OUR BRIDGES…]  –  “You’re an idiot,” was the first thing a Fall River cop said to a fleeing suspect, after climbing high up onto a roof and finding the wanted man stuck deep down inside a chimney Tuesday evening. According to a City of Fall River Police Department media statement and body cam footage, Tuesday evening – December 10, 2024 – detectives assigned to the Community Action & Suppression Team (CAST) were executing a search warrant at 127 Canal Street when two males fled from them along a rooftop. One man eluded capture by bounding from the roof onto a parked vehicle before running away. While a second man, later identified as Robert Langlais, 33, was spotted climbing down into a chimney by a man out walking his dog. As you will see in the following Fall River PD body cam footage, detectives climbed high up onto a rooftop and found Langlais wedged deep down inside a chimney! With the help of Fall River firefighters and EMTs – and after apparently needing to take apart a section of chimney – detectives were able to successfully rescue Langlais and take him into custody. Langlais was transported to an area hospital as a precaution before being medically cleared. Robert Langlais was charged with Possession of Class A drugs, Possession of Class B drugs, and a number of other charges from outstanding warrants. * The details contained in the above report are based upon an FPD media statement and FPD body cam footage. All Santa wannabes are presumed to be innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
