Police are appealing for help to find a man unlawfully at large.

Gerard Given was convicted of Grievous Bodily Harm last year.

Detectives believe he may have travelled to the Republic.

Detective Chief Inspector Lorraine McCutcheon said: “He has since breached the conditions of his Licence and has been recalled to prison.

“He is described as being 5’8 in height, of medium build with blue eyes.

“Despite attempts to arrest Mr Given, police have been unable to locate him. He may have travelled to Republic of Ireland.

“Officers are appealing to anyone who has seen him or who knows of his whereabouts not to approach him, but to contact police on 101 quoting reference RM24034280.

“Police would also appeal directly to him to hand himself in.

“Alternatively, information can also be provided to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 which is 100% anonymous.”
