Police searching for a wanted North East man have appealed to the public across the region to help locate him.

Thomas Robson is wanted in connection with offences relating to stalking and making threats to kill, but he appears to be actively evading arrest.

Although the 21-year-old suspect has links to the Newbiggin area of Northumberland, extensive searches to locate him are said to have been ongoing across the region.

Members of the public are also reminded that harbouring a wanted person is an offence and anyone involved in such activity could face prosecution.

Robson, or anyone who believes they have seen him, should send Northumbria Police a direct message on social media, or use the live chat function on the force’s website.

Alternatively, for those unable to contact police online, they should call 101, quoting reference number: 079785M/23.
