A convicted double killer is on the run from prison and people are being told to call 999 if they see him.
Darren Pilkington, 39, was jailed for manslaughter in 2006 after he pushed his girlfriend Carly Fairhurst, 19, down the stairs during a late-night row at a house in Higher Ince, Wigan. He left her with critical injuries for 12 hours before calling an ambulance.
Carly never regained consciousness and died a week later. The Prison Service said officers are working to 'urgently' recapture Pilkington following his escape from HMP Kirkham in Lancashire, MEN reports.
