A high-risk child sex offender on the run from police for three weeks has been arrested after he was found hiding in a garage north of Auckland.
Multiple arrest warrants had been issued for 47-year-old Darren Albert Jolly, who allegedly breached an extended supervision order which included 24/4 electronic monitoring.
Waitemata police found Jolly hiding in a garage at a Red Beach address in Rodney this morning.
He had been missing since he fled his Wellington address three weeks ago.
