Mpumalanga police have rearrested one of six men who broke out of the Lydenburg police cells over the weekend. Officers captured Clayton Flank near a local sports ground after a community tip off, adding an escape charge to his existing case.

Five suspects are still on the run after allegedly smashing through a cell wall using a washbasin. The fugitives face charges including rape, murder and illegal firearm possession, and police have urged residents to report any sightings.
