Roof stand-off yob had crystal meth hidden inside him

Residents in Failsworth were forced to evacuate for their own safety after James Hardman, 29, climbed up onto the terrace-house roofs.

Passersby initially saw him running around and knocking on windows asking for help before he made his way up to the roof. He then went 'chimney to chimney' and caused thousands of pounds worth of damage, Manchester Minshull Street Crown Court heard.

Ashton Road West was cordoned off by police for up to six hours and 15 to 20 firefighters were in attendance. The total cost to the fire service was more than £8,000.
