A CONVICTED murderer is still on the run more than a month after escaping from a mental health unit.
Lerone Boye, 27, was sentenced to 28 years behind bars last year for the murder of New Addington teenager Kelvin Chibueze in 2011.
Boye escaped from the John Howard Centre on Wednesday, October 16, in Kenworthy Road, Homerton, east London.
Police are appealing for anyone who might have information as to his whereabouts.
There is some intelligence to suggest Boye may be in east London and he is known to have links to Barking, Newham and Ilford.
He is described as black, 5ft 10ins and of slim build with a distinctive horseshoe shape scar on his right cheek and a gold tooth in his upper row of teeth.
Boye was last seen wearing a grey/blue sweatshirt with a grey vest over the top and grey jogging bottoms.
He was sentenced alongside three other men for the murder of Mr Chibueze in Ilford on August 15, 2011.
The 17-year-old, of Underwood in New Addington, was chased out of a car park before being stabbed to death.
He had short hair and a goatee beard.
Police are advising the public not to approach him but to call 999 if seen.
Anyone with any information about Boye's whereabouts can also call police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
