The suspect wanted in connection with the abduction and rape of three women in and around London has been arrested.
Joseph McCann, 34, was found in a tree on a rural road outside of Congleton, in Cheshire, on Sunday evening.
Police deployed negotiators and he was taken into custody in the early hours of Monday morning after a stand-off with officers overnight.
He was wanted for questioning over the abduction and rape of a 21-year-old woman at knifepoint in Watford, Hertfordshire, in the early hours of April 21.
Two women in the 20s were taken into a car and raped four days later. The abductions took place in Chingford, in Waltham Forest, and Edgware, Barnet.
Detectives from the Metropolitan Police are now investigating Mr McCann in connection with a number of other attacks on Sunday.
These include the false imprisonment of a woman in Haslingden, Lancashire, in which a teenage girl and a boy, 11, were raped and the abduction and rape of a 71-year-old in Bury, Manchester.
The suspect is also being investigated over the abduction of two 13-year-old boys and the abduction and sexual assault of a 13-year-old girl in Heywood, Manchester, at about 3.30pm on Sunday.
