MALMO, Sweden, Oct. 10 A man who found himself trapped inside a store recently in Malmo, Sweden, eventually escaped by writing messages on the window in his own blood.
The Local said Wednesday the unidentified man became locked inside the shop attempting to staunch a bloody nose after getting into a physical altercation with a colleague.
The man initially pounded on the store's windows to get anyone's attention and his ensuing shouts for help were equally ineffective.
That was when the man decided to put his recently bloodied nose to good use. Using his own blood, the man wrote the word 'police' on the window and the shocking note quickly caught the attention of a passer-by.
The newspaper said police soon arrived at the store and freed the trapped worker, while the colleague who allegedly assaulted him was arrested and taken to jail.
