Police appeal after Anthony McGregor escapes from Willesden court

Published on

A 34-year-old man remains at large following an escape from custody at Willesden Magistrates’ Court last Wednesday.

Anthony McGregor was transported to the court by officers that morning in connection with breaches of a restraining order.

Following his guilty pleas to two charges of breaching the order, a determination was made that McGregor should be returned to custody to complete the remainder of an 18-week sentence previously handed down for stalking and assault offences.

The individual absconded from the court facility after proceedings concluded.

Police confirmed that no members of the public or court staff sustained injuries during the incident.

Officers have conducted extensive searches since the escape occurred.

Authorities believe McGregor, who resides in Islington, may currently be in the vicinity of Harrow and Wealdstone.

Detective Inspector Nicola Hannant is overseeing the inquiry.

She stated that investigators are pursuing all available leads to find the fugitive and urged anyone possessing any information, regardless of how insignificant it may seem, to contact authorities immediately.

Court documentation reveals that McGregor violated the terms of his restraining order by placing numerous telephone calls to the victim.

He is described as a Black man of approximately 5ft 10ins in height with short black hair.
