TWO convicted burglars are on the run in East Lancashire after breaching the terms of their prison licence.

Michael John Daniel Jackson, 24, from Blackburn, and John William Hogg, 34, from Clayton-le-Moors, are both wanted by authorities on prison recall.

Police are appealing for information on the whereabouts of both men, who will now have to serve the remainder of their sentences.

Jackson was originally sentenced in May 2008 to 18 months in prison for burglary, by Preston Crown Court.

It is strongly believed he is still in the Blackburn or Accrington areas.

Hogg was jailed for 32 months for a burglary in March 2008.

It is thought he could still be in the Accrington or Blackburn area but has been known to travel to other parts of England, and may recently have been in the Truro area of Cornwall.

Inspector John Clucas said: “I would ask the public to be vigilant and report any sightings to the police.

"We want these people bringing to justice and any details the public may have could be crucial.”
