POLICE are appealing for help to find a wanted Blackburn man.

Jason Smith, 31, has failed to return to his bail address in the town as per the conditions of his release and is now wanted on recall to prison.

He was released around six weeks ago after serving his sentence for a robbery that happened on June 28, 2014 where he assaulted a man and stole his cash and jewellery.

Sgt Paul Watterson from Blackburn Police said: “We would urge the public not to approach Jason Smith and instead call the police.

“If you have seen him or know where he is, please contact us immediately.”

Smith is described as 5ft 10ins, of medium build, with green eyes and short dark brown hair.

He has a number of tattoos including the name ‘Becky’, the Armani logo and an army badge on his neck and a skull, a dollar sign and the letter ‘S’ on his arm.

He has links to Blackburn, Darwen, Bolton and Manchester.

Anyone with information is asked to call 101.
