A MAN suspected of breaching the terms of a prison licence is wanted by police.

Officers have been looking for Gary David Maclean, 54, since the end of May after it was reported that he had breached the terms of his licence.

He had been released from prison in February after being jailed for shoplifting at the end of last year.

Enquiries to locate Maclean have been ongoing but officers believe he is actively trying to avoid police.

Now they are appealing for help from the public to locate him and say he was most recently seen on Thursday using the Metro to travel from Monument towards the coast.

Maclean, of Oak Street, Throckley, is described as white, of slim build, about 6ft tall and with short greying hair. Anyone with information is asked to call 101.
