Daryl Taylor, who absconded from police custody in Ipswich on Sunday, has been apprehended along with two alleged accomplices.
The big picture: A multi-team police operation in Rendlesham on Wednesday evening resulted in the arrest of Daryl Taylor, 33, who, police have now revealed, was wanted on child sex offence charges and a prison recall.
Key details:
Taylor, of no fixed address but from the Ipswich area, escaped from officers on 11 August while under arrest
He was located and arrested shortly before 19:00 on 14 August
Two other men were arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender
All three are in custody at Martlesham Police Investigation Centre
What they're saying: Superintendent Andy Martin praised the "unwavering and relentless efforts" of officers involved in locating Taylor.
"It is right and proper that he now serves the term of his recall and be presented to the courts on the charges against him," Martin said.
Police are "robustly pursuing all enquiries" regarding others who may have assisted Taylor while he was at large.
What's next: The three arrested men remain in custody for questioning. Police say they will continue investigating those suspected of helping Taylor evade arrest.
The bottom line: Suffolk Police thanked the public for their support during the search for Taylor, emphasising their commitment to bringing all involved parties to justice.
