Police are urgently searching for a mental health facility escapee who is considered dangerous.
Philip Theophilou, a 54-year-old man, has escaped from a mental health facility in east London and is currently on the run. This news has sparked a police appeal as he is considered a potential risk due to not having access to his necessary medication. The Metropolitan Police is now actively searching for the killer, who has a history of violence.

Theophilou's criminal past dates back to April 2004 when he fatally stabbed his neighbor, Simon Breed, with a kitchen knife. He waited outside Breed's home in Alexandra Park before attacking him, stabbing him six times in the chest. After committing the heinous crime, he fled to Hyde Park where he lived as a fugitive for three days before being apprehended by the police.

During his trial in 2005, it was revealed that Theophilou suffered from a mental illness and was sent to Broadmoor special hospital under the Mental Health Act. He had admitted to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility and was confined to the hospital without a time limit. This tragic incident occurred just a year after Theophilou had caused significant damage to Breed's property with a meat cleaver.

According to the Metropolitan Police, Theophilou was last seen in the Green Park area on Sunday at 11:25 am. He was wearing a grey jumper, blue jeans, and a black jacket at the time. The police have issued a warning for the public to not approach him if sighted, as he may pose a potential risk without his medication.

This recent turn of events has caused concern among both the police and medical professionals, as Theophilou's lack of access to his medication could potentially make him unpredictable and dangerous. In other news from the capital, a 21-year-old man was shot dead in his house in west London, while a secret tube station door was discovered that is only accessible to a select few. In another incident, teenage girls were arrested for assaulting police during a brawl at a station.
