A serial fraudster who went on the run for five days with a 14-year-old girl has been jailed for six years
35 year old John Bush disappeared with the girl back in June. She cannot now be named or identified for legal reasons.
A nationwide police hunt was launched after the teenager went missing from her home near Doncaster, South Yorkshire.
She was eventually found with Bush by police near Euston Station in central London.
At a previous hearing he admitted sexual activity with a child, child abduction and making off without paying for two hotel rooms.
He was jailed at Sheffield Crown Court by a judge who said he believed Bush was at least partly motivated by sex.
