A convicted murderer who has been on the run for over a week handed himself in to the PSNI today.
Police initiated a man hunt last Monday when Jonathan Peter Neill (34) absconded. He was living in the community as part of a phased release scheme from Maghaberry Prison, Co Antrim, when he disappeared from the Cookstown area.
Neill was convicted of murdering a lodger who was living with his parents in 1991 when he was 16 years old and also has convictions for burglary.
A spokesman for the Prison Service said he handed himself over to authorities voluntarily this afternoon.
He has now been returned to Maghaberry Prison.
