Belgium 'jailbreak king' caught


A man who escaped from a Belgian prison on Sunday has been recaptured in the neighbouring Netherlands.

Accomplices landed a hijacked helicopter at Ittre prison on Sunday, allowing Nordin Benallal to flee by car in the resulting confusion.

However, Benallal was detained in The Hague on Tuesday, after being cornered in a motorcycle showroom.
