Detectives say Thomas knows he is wanted and has been actively evading police since he failed to appear at court.
Officers are re-issuing their appeal to anyone who has seen him or has worked with him or who knows where he is to come forward with information.
He has several distinctive tattoos including a tattoo to the front of his neck, a Joker mouth and nose tattoo on his left hand, a Batman versus Superman tattoo on his left leg, and a pair of wings on his back.
Anyone who sees him is urged to call North Yorkshire Police on 101 quoting reference number 12190153359.
