A man dubbed the “Master of Escapes” is arrested in Spain after breaking out of prisons multiple times, authorities say. Police report that he escapes for the fourth time from a maximum-security facility in Italy, then remains at large across Europe.

According to Spanish authorities, officers track the fugitive to a neighbourhood in Tarragona, where they believe he is living. A judge orders the man held in custody without bail while Spain processes his extradition to Italy. The outlets describe his wider escape record as occurring across several European prisons, emphasizing that he has previously carried out similar breakouts before the most recent incident.
