Police appeal to trace prisoner
POLICE are appealing for people in Sedgemoor to be on the lookout for a man who absconded from prison.
John Loveridge, 28, was sentenced to five years in prison in 2011 for offences including burglary and theft.
He absconded from HMP North Sea Camp in Lincolnshire on Monday, February 11, and is thought to be in Somerset.
He is described as white; around 5ft 8 to 5ft 9inches tall, of a slim build, with short black hair and hazel coloured eyes. He has a 4-inch scar on the back of his left hand and a tattoo stating 'Stacey' on his right arm.
Anyone who sees him is asked to call 999 immediately.
