Local media reported that French-Algerian top gangster Redoine Faid made his second prison break in just over five years at around 11:30am (10:30 GMT) on Sunday. Faid, 46, was reportedly assisted by at least three armed accomplices who picked him up by helicopter from the Reau prison courtyard, in the southeastern suburbs of Paris, Le Parisien newspaper reported. Le Monde newspaper reported the operation only took a few minutes. Advertisement The burned-out helicopter was found by local police in the Gonesse area, north of Paris. Faid, who was once the most-wanted criminal in France, pulled off an earlier prison break in April 2013 when he took four prison guards hostage and used explosives hidden in tissue packets to blast his way through several gates. He was captured six weeks later in a hotel outside the French capital. Faid was serving a 25-year prison sentence for a failed 2010 robbery in which a 26-year-old municipal police officer was killed. He had been released on parole in 2009, after spending 10 years behind bars for a series of robberies. That same year, he wrote a book about growing up in Paris' suburbs and leading a life of crime, which he claimed at the time to have put behind him.
