The PSNI says a "dangerous" convicted murderer has failed to return to Magilligan Prison after day release.

Stephen Henry was jailed in 2004 and hasn't been seen since yesterday.

Officers say the 41-year-old may in Belfast or Craigavon and he should not be approached.

Detective Sergeant McColgan said: "We believe that Stephen Henry, who was jailed for murder in 2004, is dangerous and may be in either the Craigavon or Belfast area.

"He is described as being 5’10” in height, of medium build with short brown hair. He has tattoos on both upper arms and scars on his forehead and left ear.

"He was last seen in the Craigavon area at around 3.45pm yesterday.

"He has a history of violence and I would urge the public not to approach him but to contact police immediately.

"I would ask Mr Henry to hand himself in to the authorities without any further delay and ask anyone who knows of his current whereabouts or who has any information to contact police on 999."
