Hunt for Rotherham prison fugitive

Jamie Webb has been wanted since the beginning of last November after breaching legal conditions on his release from prison.

The 23-year-old—described as white, around 6ft tall and of a muscular build with short brown hair—is known to frequent different areas of Rotherham and police want to hear from anyone who knows where he is.

Det Insp Lea Jackson said: “Jamie Webb is aware officers are looking for him and we are asking for the public’s help in locating him.

“When he is found and arrested, he will be immediately returned to prison.

“I would add that anyone who is found to have assisted Mr Webb in eluding the police could be committing a criminal offence and would also be dealt with accordingly.”

Officers said that members of the public should not approach Webb under any circumstances.

Anyone with information about his whereabouts is asked to call police on 0114 220 2020 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
