A Chinese man wanted by police on weapons charges escaped capture for eight years by hiding in a cave behind his home, Xinhua news agency said Thursday. The man, from Fuzhou in southeast China, dug the cave into the hillside behind the wall of his bedroom and used a wardrobe to cover the entrance.

However, Liu Yong, 35, who had been wanted by police since a 1998 incident in which victims were injured by gunshots, gave himself up on Tuesday because he could no longer stand life as a fugitive, the news agency added.

Liu said that he lived in the house during the day but retired to his three-square-metres (30-square-foot) cave at night.
