The British Metropolitan Police is currently hunting for a 25-year-old Nigerian, Temitope Segun, who jumped down from a prison vehicle and fled.
The Metropolitan Police announced this in a statement on its website on Wednesday, June 10, as it added that he absconded from the prison transport van in Woolwich and was last seen in the vicinity of Woolwich High Street at around 6:40 p.m. on Monday, June 8.
Detective from the British Police, Sergeant Claudine Manning, who is leading the search, said: “My team of dedicated officers are working around the clock to trace and apprehend Temitope Segun. It is imperative that the public contact police via 999 if they see him – or know where he may be.
“He was last seen wearing a black jacket, black trousers and black trainers and has links across south London.”
The police also advise the public to not approach Temitope Segun and instead dial 999, as he was described as “dangerous in the present situation.”
