A SEARCH has been launched for a convicted robber, wanted for recall to prison.
Matthew Brereton, 39, was released on licence after serving four years of a nine-year sentence for robbery, but has since breached the terms of his licence.
North Yorkshire Police have urged anyone with information on Brereton's whereabouts to contact them, and say they believe he may be in the Acomb area.
Brereton is described as white, about five feet ten inches tall, with a medium build, dark brown hair and brown eyes.
Anyone with information should phone police on 101, or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555111.
