A man being pursued by police has climbed on to a roof in a bid to get away in a dramatic city centre pursuit.

Eye witnesses have told The Argus that police officers have been attempting to arrest two men in the centre of Brighton this afternoon.

One man was seen climbing up on to the rooftops of homes off Church Street, Brighton, near to the Earth and Star pub just before 3.30pm this afternoon.

One man was reportedly arrested in the street while officers are surrounding the rooftop man.
