Police have released new CCTV images of a convicted murderer and a second prisoner who escaped from a prison in Cromhall, Gloucestershire on New Year’s Day.
Avon and Somerset Police said they had received a number of reported sightings of Matthew Armstrong and Daniel Washbourne, who absconded from HMP Leyhill.
Armstrong was convicted of murdering someone during a robbery in Warwickshire in 2009.
Washbourne has previous convictions for offences of false imprisonment and violence against a person, police said.
On Saturday, two men matching their descriptions were pictured in Ashley Road, Bristol at around 10.35am. They are seen walking towards the Stokes Croft area.

Then, on Sunday, at around 9.35am-9.45am, a man is seen walking along Filton Road and then Gloucester Road North in Filton, stopping at one stage to look at bus timetables.
The man is wearing a burgundy coat matching the one worn by Armstrong when he left HMP Leyhill.
Police believe he continues to walk along the same road and is seen in the Patchway area at about 11.05am-11.15am.
Armstrong is 35 years old and described as a white male, about 5ft 9ins, with ginger hair and has links to Warwickshire.
Washbourne, 40, is described as white, male, about 5ft 6ins, slim, with brown hair, clean shaven and has links to Herefordshire.
Three men were initially reported to have absconded from the South Gloucestershire prison between 5-8pm on Thursday 1 January.
A 39-year-old man was arrested by Avon and Somerset Police in Bristol on the afternoon of Saturday 3 January.
He has since been charged with escaping lawful custody and appeared in court yesterday. He is due to attend Bristol Crown Court next month.
