A SQUATTER was rescued by the Guardia Civil after broken glass left him temporarily paralysed.

The 32-year-old man climbed up to an Moraira apartment balcony on external piping and then smashed a door window to get indoors.

Unfortunately for him, some of the shattered glass caused a deep cut on a leg which meant he could not move.

The man resorted to shouting for help at 3.40am on Sunday(October 11) and a neighbour called the Guardia Civil.

Agents took him to Denia Hospital for treatment ahead of facing break-in charges.
