York Fugitive on the Run After Daring Prison Escape

A 33-year-old man from York, Scott Lewis Hurst, is on the loose after making a bold prison break. The stocky, brown-haired lad, standing around 6ft 2in, climbed over a wall and sprinted off on foot to evade officers.

Hurst faces charges for escaping lawful custody and is now wanted on recall to prison. Police issued a warrant at the time of his disappearance and have been hunting him ever since. He failed to turn up at court and is actively avoiding capture.
