Police are on the hunt for a Gateshead man wanted for a number of offences including making threats to kill.
A public appeal has been launched in a bid to find Sean Wayne Peter Stokes who is also wanted in connection with criminal damage offences. The 49-year-old is believed to be actively evading arrest and Northumbria Police have carried out searches at a number of addresses and locations across Gateshead and Newcastle where he is known to frequent.
Now officers are appealing to the public for help in a bid to bring him into custody. Police have asked anyone who has seen him or believes they may know where he may be staying, to contact officers immediately.
