Botched heist suspect arrested again after allegedly leaving hospital, skipping court

A botched pub heist suspect, who allegedly skipped court after discharging himself from hospital with a fractured spine, has been caught and ordered to be extradited to NSW.

The 42-year-old, who has not been named as he is yet to be formally charged in NSW over the alleged robbery attempt, faced the ACT Magistrates Court on Thursday, July 9. He appeared via audio-visual link with his arm in a sling.
