A prisoner is on the run after absconding from an open prison in Derbyshire, police have said.

Liam Lytollis, who was serving a sentence at HMP Sudbury, near Ashbourne, after being transferred there in October, left the prison on Thursday evening.

Derbyshire Police said the 31-year-old has links with Doncaster in South Yorkshire and Gainsborough in Lincolnshire.

The force urged members of the public not to approach Lytollis if they see him, and instead make a report to the police.

He has been described as white, of slim build, with dark brown short hair and a full brown beard.
