Police Hunt Wanted Man Jason Gavin Believed To Be Travelling Across Cumbria
Police have launched a public appeal to trace Jason Gavin, a wanted man who is believed to be travelling within Cumbria. Officers are asking residents to remain vigilant and report any information that could help locate him.
According to the appeal, investigators believe Gavin may be moving around different parts of the county. As a result, police have shared his details publicly in the hope that members of the community can assist with the search. Authorities have stressed that anyone who believes they have seen Jason Gavin should not attempt to approach or confront him. Instead, they are urged to contact police immediately, providing details of the sighting, including the location, time, and any relevant information that may assist officers.
Police say public cooperation is often vital in locating wanted individuals, with information from local residents frequently helping investigations progress more quickly. Officers are encouraging anyone with knowledge of Gavin's whereabouts to come forward, even if they believe the information may seem insignificant.
The appeal forms part of ongoing efforts by police to locate individuals wanted in connection with criminal investigations and to ensure public safety across the region. Officers continue to carry out enquiries while following up on intelligence received from the public.
Residents are reminded that if they encounter someone they believe to be the wanted individual, they should prioritise their own safety and contact the police rather than intervening themselves. Police also encourage anyone with relevant information to use official reporting channels or call 999 if the sighting is immediate or there is an urgent risk to public safety. Information can also be passed through the appropriate non emergency reporting service where suitable.
Authorities thanked the public for their continued support, noting that community assistance plays an important role in helping officers locate wanted suspects and protect local communities. Investigations into Jason Gavin's whereabouts remain ongoing as police continue their search.
