A huge £10,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the capture of one of Liverpool's "most wanted" fugitive.

Police are looking to trace Kevin Parle, 45, who's wanted in connection with two murders in Liverpool, Liam Kelly in 2004 and Lucy Hargreaves in 2005.

Parle is described as around 6’5” tall with ginger hair and a stocky build.

Since vanishing in 2005, Kevin Parle has evaded capture despite being the subject of international manhunts and appeals.

There have been reports of him in Spain, Australia and Dubai, but no confirmed sightings or any substantial leads.

Crimestoppers is now offering money to aid detectives in their search.

Gary Murray, North West Regional Manager for the charity Crimestoppers said: “We know there are people who may know where Kevin Parle is.

"It’s time to do the right thing.

"Our guarantee of anonymity means you will never be identified by anyone, and your information could help bring justice and solace to those who have suffered for the last 20 years.”
