Police in Newton Abbot have arrested a "dangerous " wanted man who was on the run from London's Metropolitan force.

The man was wanted on recall to prison.

Earlier this week police in Harrow attempted to arrest the man but he escaped by jumping out of a second-floor window.

Officers in Newton Abbot have revealed that they went to a "location in our area" where a man was arrested.

A vehicle that was stolen back in October 2022 from London with cloned number plates was also recovered.

Writing on their Facebook page, police also said a female was also arrested at the scene, and enquiries are ongoing while both suspects currently remain in police custody.
