Hunt For Two More On-The-Run Prisoners

Police are hunting two inmates, including a convicted robber, who have fled from an open jail in Warrington, Cheshire.

It is the latest in a series of embarrassing incidents in recent days where prisoners have absconded from custody.

In the latest case, Anthony Peloe and John Arnold, both from the Liverpool area, were reported missing around 10.30am on Tuesday by staff at Thorn Cross prison.

Police are warning the public not to approach the pair.

Arnold, 30, was convicted of robbery in May 2006 and jailed for two years. He is described as a white, around 5ft 11in tall and slimly built.

He has brown hair and brown eyes and may be wearing prison issue green trousers.

Peloe, 43, was convicted of possession of firearms with intent to commit harm in December 2005 and was sentenced to three years in jail.

Dean Jackson (L) and Damien Burns also absconded this week

He is described as white, 5ft 8in and of proportionate build. He has brown hair and blue eyes and may also be wearing green prison issue trousers.

Superintendent Martin Cleworth of Warrington Police said: "Cheshire Police are making every effort to locate these two men including liaising with colleagues in other forces.

"They may be travelling together or separately."

If anyone sees them, they are urged to call police using the non-emergency number 101 and quoting incident 306 of 20 May 2014.

On Tuesday, it emerged an armed robber had absconded from an open prison in Doncaster along with another inmate.

Both Michael Wheatley (L) and Thomas Moffett are back in custody

Police are also warning the public not to approach Damien Burns or Dean Jackson, who went missing from Hatfield Prison in South Yorkshire on Monday evening.

Burns, 39, originally from Scarborough, North Yorkshire, was serving an indeterminate sentence handed to him in 2007 for a knifepoint robbery.

Jackson, 27, from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, was on remand awaiting sentencing for what police described as "a theft-related matter".

Their escape came a day after a murderer who stabbed a blind man to death was arrested after going on the run from prison.

Arnold Pickering, who was jailed for life in 1991 for killing a man he wrongly thought to be a paedophile, was tracked down to an address in Oldham.

Arnold Pickering has also been arrested after going on the run

The 44-year-old had failed to return to HMP Kennet in Merseyside after leaving the Category C jail on day release on Saturday.

Another inmate, swastika-tattooed Thomas Moffett, 51, who is serving an indeterminate sentence for a number of robberies, also failed to return from day release on Saturday but was arrested on Monday night.

The series of escapes comes weeks after notorious armed robber Michael Wheatley - known as the Skullcracker - absconded from Standford Hill open prison on the Isle of Sheppey, Kent, while on temporary release.

Sky News Home Affairs Correspondent Mark White said: "Things are just going from bad to worse for the Ministry of Justice. Peloe and Arnold are the seventh prisoners in less than three weeks to go missing from open prison environments."
