He is the fourth prisoner to escape from HMP Standford Hill this year.

Last month, Paul Stone, 36, from Medway; Anthony Hogan, 50, from south London; and Nicky Gale, 29, from Dartford went missing.

Stone was discovered a few days later, but Hogan and Gale are thought to still be on the run.

HMP Standford Hill (pictured below) is a category D open prison where some inmates are approaching the end of their sentence.
