VIDEO: Police Officers Rescue Hallucinating Man from Tree

Prague Municipal Police had to rescue a 35-year-old man who climbed a tree under the influence of severe hallucinations.

Medical professionals are now investigating whether these hallucinations were induced by drugs or a potential mental health disorder.

The unusual incident took place on Na Havránce Street (Prague 12), close to a local kindergarten. Eyewitnesses quickly alerted the police after spotting the man in a precarious situation.

“The man was standing on branches about four metres high,” the police statement reads. “He was dressed only in a torn T-shirt and shorts, without any shoes. His body was covered in bloody scratches, and he appeared disoriented, uncoordinated, and clearly suffering from hallucinations.”

The situation was especially dangerous as there was a slope and scattered building materials beneath the tree, making a potential fall even more hazardous.

Despite attempts to coax him down safely, the police were only able to lower the man with the assistance of a ladder and the fire brigade.

After being safely brought to the ground, the man received first aid on-site and was immediately transported to a specialized medical facility for further evaluation.
