Greggor Grey was serving a life sentence for robbery

A convicted robber has been charged with going on the run from an open prison in Derbyshire.

An appeal was issued after Greggor Grey, who was serving a life sentence, left HMP Sudbury in May.

Derbyshire Police said Grey was arrested in the Edgbaston area of Birmingham at about 19:15 BST on Monday.

The 42-year-old was charged with escaping lawful custody and is due to appear before magistrates later.
