A notorious runaway robot - that has escaped from its lab twice - has been arrested by police at a political rally. Promobot was supporting Russian Parliament candidate Valery Kalachev in Moscow when authorities attempted to handcuff it and take it away. It is believed that the arrest occurred after a member of public called police as Promobots were recording the opinions of voters on a variety of topics "for further processing and analysis by the candidate's team." A company spokesman told Inverse magazine: "Police asked to remove the robot away from the crowded area, and even tried to handcuff him. "According to eyewitnesses, the robot did not put up any resistance."
