Police on both sides of the Irish Border are still looking for a prisoner who escaped from custody while attending a funeral in Northern Ireland yesterday.
James Joseph McEvoy (27) was last seen getting into a white car at a service station on a bypass near his home city of Newry.
It is believed the car headed towards the Border with the Republic.
Members of the public were urged not to approach McEvoy, who was sentenced to seven years last month after being found guilty of grievous bodily harm.
