It's thought a man wanted by Thames Valley Police could be in Dorset.

The force is renewing its appeal to find 36-year-old John Loveridge who absconded from HMP Springhill in October last year.

He is approximately 5ft 8ins tall, of medium build with short, dark hair and a beard.

Loveridge is known to Bicester and Daventry but also may have been in the Cirencester area of Gloucestershire or in areas of Dorset.

A spokesperson for Thames Valley Police said:

"If you see him, do not approach him and call 999 instead.

"If you have any information as to he may be you can also call 101 or make a report online quoting 4321047953

"Alternatively if you wish to remain anonymous, you can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111."
