The manhunt for Daniel Gee continues, but with no notable updates on his whereabouts. Given the prison’s proximity to both Scotland and Newcastle, there will be fears he could have fled further north or used transport links to reach mainland Europe.

Cleveland Police, who are leading the investigation into Daniel Gee, told the ECHO there were no developments.

An earlier statement from the force said: “Cleveland Police are appealing to find wanted man Daniel Gee, 44, who escaped from Kirklevington Prison on Monday 27th.^th May. Daniel is described as a white male with a large build, about 6 feet tall and bald.

“He was last seen wearing a black jumpsuit, black Adidas trousers with a white stripe down each leg and black trainers. He was carrying a yellow JD Sports bag. It is believed to have links to the North Yorkshire area, including Whitby, Carlisle, St. Helens and Merseyside.

“Anyone who has seen Daniel Gee or may know his current whereabouts is asked to call Cleveland Police on 101 quoting reference number 098852.”

The manhunt to find Daniel Gee after he went on the run on Monday night has entered its fourth day.

A reminder that Gee escaped from Kirklevington Grange Prison in the North East.

Everton gangster Daniel Gee, who is currently wanted by police after escaping from prison, is serving an indeterminate sentence because of the risk he poses to the public.

Gee, who made headlines this week after escaping from a North East prison, was given the sentence in 2010 after a Crown Court judge ruled it was for the protection of the public. The controversial law allowed judges to sentence criminals who were considered dangerous to prison indefinitely, even if their crime did not merit a life sentence.

Notorious gangster Daniel Gee, who once flooded Everton’s Grizedale estate with dangerous drugs, as a prison escapee.

The formidable gangster was jailed indefinitely for public protection in 2010 after an undercover investigation caught him conspiring to buy guns and threatening to kill a teenager who shot him during a New Year’s Eve confrontation two years earlier. After fourteen years, Gee, who ran the estate with his brother Darren, who has since become an anti-knife campaigner and true crime podcaster, remained behind bars – until Monday, May 27.

The ECHO exclusively revealed on Tuesday night that Gee had escaped from prison and gone on the run. The ECHO later confirmed that investigations into his disappearance from prison were being led by Cleveland Police after Gee had escaped from Kirklevington Grange Prison in Stockton-on-Tees.

A breakout is an escape that does not involve overcoming a physical security constraint. According to the Prison and Probation Service, Category D prisons are minimum security and allow eligible inmates to spend most of their day away from prison on license to pursue work, education or other resettlement purposes.

If an offender fails an open prison, they are not allowed to return to an open prison for at least two years.

On Tuesday, the ECHO revealed that notorious gangster Daniel Gee had escaped from prison.

A Prison Service spokesman said: “All prisoners in Category D prisons are carefully assessed for risk and escapes are rare. Offenders who break the rules are punished and face additional time behind bars and we are working with the police to recapture this prisoner.”

Gee, now 44, was a leading member of a powerful Everton gang who turned the Grizedale estate into a 24-hour open-air drug market. He was jailed for public protection in 2010 after an undercover investigation caught him conspiring to buy guns and threatening to kill a teenager.
