DUO CAPTURED AS NEW SWOOP CLOSES IN ON UK FUGITIVES

PALMA
TWO more of Britain's most wanted fugitives have been captured in Spain.
Daniel Johnston, aged 28, and Keith Burke, 47, were both arrested in a renewed police crackdown on criminals on the run in southern Spain and the Balearics.

Both men were named among the 30 most wanted men named in Operation Captura, a joint initiative operated by UK charity Crimestoppers, the Serious Organised Crime Agency (Soca) and the Spanish authorities. The first group of wanted crooks were revealed in February and more were named during October following the initial success of the scheme.

Johnston was captured in the mountian village of Pruna, near Seville, following a tip-off.
