I couldn't say for sure, I'm not there. And mental health services and funding are severely lacking globally. Just the fact that the issues are out in the open, and no innocent bystanders were harmed, and authorities are aware of this man's situation and line of thinking is a step forward from what could have been, that's all.

you make valid points. But situations like this can deteriorate very quickly. The fact that no one was taken into custody is frightening.

I'm not sure I'm following? Situations like this can also improve very quickly, with the right monitoring and meds. And custody for what? He internalised his whole psychosis and ran, hiding. He didn't threaten to, or shoot up the govt. Mental illness isn't a crime. He hasn't made great choices, but unless I'm missing something, he isn't criminal.
