Prison fugitive recaptured

A MAN who breached his prison release conditions has been caught after four months on the run.

Officers continued to gather evidence to trace Jamie Webb (23) after he absconded at the beginning of November.

Webb was arrested in Masbrough last week and appeared at Rotherham Magistrates’ Court charged with assault, witness intimidation, theft and criminal damage. He was remanded in custody until Friday.

A 22-year-old woman was arrested at the same time on suspicion of assisting an offender. She was bailed pending further police inquiries.
