A wanted man has been arrested following an appeal by police.

Bradley Moynes, 29, was jailed for six years for blackmail at Lewes Crown Court in October 2011.

He was released part way through his sentence but Sussex Police issued a warrant for his recall to prison after he breached the terms of his licence.

He was arrested in Gossops Drive, Crawley, at about 9.15pm yesterday.

Police have thanked the public and media for their help in tracing him.
