A 15-year-old jointly charged with the murder of a man in the Far North has been recaptured 21 days after escaping from a youth justice facility.
Michael John Biggins, 62, was found in a vehicle crashed in a paddock off Imms Rd on September 27.
He died at the scene, despite the efforts of emergency services.
The incident was initially believed to have been a car crash but police later charged two youths aged 15 and 12 with Biggins' murder.
