Officers carrying out enquiries to locate a wanted man are appealing for information from the public to help find him.

Stephen Thomas, aged 41, was sentenced in 2019 for trespass with intent to commit a sexual offence.

He has since been released from prison and has failed to register a new address and has therefore breached his notification requirements and is also wanted on prison recall after failing to comply with the terms of his licence.

He is described as six feet two inches tall and of slim build with black hair.

Detective Constable Damian May, of Dorset Police, said: “We are carrying out numerous enquiries to try and locate Stephen Thomas as soon as possible.

“We understand that he may have travelled to Scotland and would urge anyone with information about his whereabouts to please get in touch.

“If you see Stephen Thomas, we would ask you to not approach him, but instead dial 999 immediately.”

If you see Stephen Thomas you should dial 999 immediately. Anyone else with other information should call 101, quoting occurrence number 55250148507. Alternatively, independent charity Crimestoppers can be contacted anonymously online using its website or by calling Freephone 0800 555 111.
