A Bradford man who escaped from jail earlier this month is back behind bars.

Dean Doyle, aged 32, absconded from Thorn Cross Prison in Warrington, Cheshire on Thursday, August 15.

Doyle, who was serving a six-year sentence for burglary, handed himself in to officers at Trafalgar House Police Station, Bradford, at 11pm yesterday.

He was re-arrested and will be sent back to Cheshire.
