A MAN who escaped from an open prison and taunted police about his life on the run was back behind bars yesterday.

Craig “Lazie” Lynch, 28, who absconded from Hollesley Bay Prison near Woodbridge, Suffolk, in September, was arrested by the Metropolitan Police in Kent on Tuesday night.

He appeared before magistrates in Bexleyheath, south-east London, yesterday charged with escaping from lawful custody.
