London Prisoner Escapes Hospital Again, Second Breakout in a Week Sparks Manhunt
A prisoner from HMP Feltham is on the run again after escaping from Lewisham Hospital, marking his second breakout in just one week. Daniel Boakye, also known as Dsavv, a 21-year-old from Alma Road in Enfield, managed to evade security and officers at the hospital on Sunday, February 15, 2026.
Details of the Escape and Criminal Background
Boakye was originally sentenced to six years and five months in prison in July 2023 for a series of violent knifepoint robberies targeting cryptocurrency, with losses totaling £115,000. His latest escape follows a previous incident where he went missing from hospital care on Tuesday, February 10, only to be apprehended in Thamesmead the following day, February 11.
It remains unclear why Boakye was at Lewisham Hospital during this second escape. Authorities have launched a widespread manhunt to locate him, with concerns heightened by his repeat offending and the potential risk to public safety.
Additional Context and Implications
In addition to his prison sentence, Boakye was reportedly set to be deported to Ghana in the coming months, according to sources cited by The Sun. This adds a layer of complexity to the case, involving immigration and security protocols.
The repeated escapes raise serious questions about the security measures in place for prisoners receiving hospital treatment. Experts are calling for a review of procedures to prevent such incidents in the future, especially given the high-profile nature of Boakye's crimes and his history of evasion.
Local residents in areas like Lewisham and Thamesmead are advised to remain vigilant as the search continues. The Metropolitan Police are urging anyone with information to come forward to assist in the investigation.
