Wanted Berwick man: police appeal for public to help locate fugitive who has been evading arrest

An appeal for the public’s help in relation to a wanted Berwick man has been issued by Northumbria Police.

Robert Guthrie, 39, is wanted on prison recall, but has been evading arrest for a number of weeks.

Searches are ongoing at various associated addresses and it is believed that Guthrie may be living a transient lifestyle in a bid to remain under the radar.

Police are now asking for the public to come forward and assist in their search for him – by passing on any information about his whereabouts or where he may be residing.

It is a criminal offence to harbour a wanted fugitive and anybody found to have done so could face a potential prison sentence themselves.

Guthrie, or anyone who has information where he may be, is asked to contact Northumbria Police via the ‘Tell Us Something’ page of its website or by calling 101 – quoting crime number 067093M/22.
