British fugitive caught in Spain

One of Britain’s most wanted fugitives has been arrested in Spain, police said.

Andrew Moran, 31, from Salford, Greater Manchester, was arrested in the resort of Calpe in Alicante on Friday, the Serious Organised Crime Agency said.

Moran, who has been on the run for over four years, fled the country in 2009 after he vaulted the dock in a Burnley courtroom as he went on trial over a £25,000 (€29,571) armed robbery of Royal Mail guards.
