Police appeal to trace wanted man

Harrogate police are appealing to the public to help them trace a man wanted in connection with a burglary.

Officers have released an image of Stuart Mawer, 36, of Wetherby Road, Harrogate, and are urging people to contact them if they see him.

Mawer is wanted in connection with a break-in at a house in Bishop Monkton in November 2012, during which around jewellery worth £4,000 was stolen.

Last night North Yorkshire Police appealed for the public’s help to trace him.

He is described as white, with short dark hair.

Det Sgt Fionna McEwan of Harrogate police said: “I am appealing to anyone who knows where Stuart Mawer is to contact the police or Crimestoppers with information.

“We need to question him in connection with a burglary and the support of the public could prove vital in locating him.”
