An appeal has been issued for help to find seven of Cumbria’s most wanted.
Cumbria police have launched the appeal – Wanted this Winter – as part of ongoing action across the county to progress investigations.
Officers initially issued appeals for 12 people wanted in connection with investigations and have so far located five of them.
Detective Superintendent James Yallop, of Cumbria Constabulary, said: “We would like the public’s help in locating the individuals who feature as part of this appeal.
“The appeals are connected to ongoing investigations covering a range of crimes.
“Each day, our officers and staff ensure those who are wanted in connection with offences are identified and located so we can progress investigations.
