The Search Continues

This search for Yves Rausch still continuing?  Yes.

I've essayed this search....starting when he overtook four policemen trying to arrest him, and took their pistols, as he escaped.

N-TV does a good job on the current situation.

Around 300 police are still looking for the guy....in a heavily wooded region of southern Germany. 

In simple terms, he's lived this 'charmed' life....a bad-boy lifestyle....spending time in jail and youth-detention.

The manifest chatter?    Police won't release the manifest, so you can't be sure of much.  The comment that it was written by someone else and Yves just had a copy of it?  Well, that's part of the story.  There was one hint that the manifest has some anti-technology and anti-modernization elements to it.....kinda like the Unabomber guy from the US. 

If I were putting odds on the capture?  This is a heavily wooded area south of Baden-Baden, and near the French border.  This guy is in great health and based on news descriptions....I'd guess that he could handle 20 km hikes in a day....fairly easily.  It's possible that he even crossed the Rhine River and made it into the national park area of France.

I noticed last night that the BBC had even given him some status as the 'Forest-Rambo'.
