Police Work Tirelessly To Support Man Who Barricaded Himself In House Suffering A Mental Health Crisis.

On Friday 13 June officers attended an address on Dagenham Healthway following concerns that a man had barricaded himself in a house. Officers attended and the road was closed as they began talking and working with the man to try and get him out of the property safely.

Following a length of time and a great deal of work by both local officers and officers from the Territorial Support Group, the man was removed from the house and taken to hospital.

A spokesperson for the Met Police told the Havering Daily:

“Police were called at 10:01hrs on Friday, 13 June by the London Ambulance Service to reports of a man having a mental health crisis in a residential property in Heathway, Dagenham, , RM10

Officers attended and the man was brought to safety at 03:22hrs and was taken to hospital.”
