Escaped criminal taunts police on Facebook
An escaped prisoner has celebrated his first Christmas on the run by taunting police with photos of himself on Facebook.
On Christmas Day, Craig 'Lazie' Lynch, 28, even posted a photo of himself adorned in tinsel, making a rude gesture and holding a turkey, reports the Daily Mail.
Lynch has been on the run from Suffolk's Hollesley Bay Prison since September but rather than hide from police he has regularly updated them on his movements via the social networking site.
Below the Christmas Day photo he wrote "If any of you was doubtin my freedom. Here's proof. How the f*** could i get my hands on a bird like this in jail. ha ha."
The same day he said: "Wow it really is xmas ha ha i cant beleive i made it f*** tha police."
But Lynch also revealed that at one point he heard sirens in the early hours outside his house and assumed he was about to be arrested.
He wrote an update, saying: "Oh No sirens!! It's happening."
However, it emerged the noise came from an ambulance helping an elderly woman across the street from his hideout.
Craig Lynch has developed a strong following on his Facebook page as he continues to taunt police.
Last week Suffolk Police said his details had been logged on the Police National Computer and that routine checks were regularly performed at his known addresses.
A police spokeswoman said officers were also working with officials from Facebook to try and catch Lynch.

And I thought WiFi/Facebook was a waste of time.
He just needs a GPS and a paypal account!
They don't serve turkey in jail?
