A MISSING sex offender is being hunted by police.
Michael Simon Barr, 32, of no fixed address, was jailed for 10 years in 2003 for rape, burglary and sexual assault.
He is now wanted for breaching his notification requirements.
Barr has links to Accrington, Preston and Fleetwood.
DC Steve Lucas said: “Barr is a dangerous and violent individual and while we need the public’s help to find him.
"I would urge anyone who sees him not to approach him but to contact the police.”
Anyone with information should call police on 101 and quote log number LC-20170201-0739 of February 2.
