Police appeal for help in tracing local man

Police are keen to locate a 25 year old man from Honiton known as Josh Richards (see image) who officers believe may be able to provide some information that could help with their enquiries relating to two separate offences that took place last year.

Detectives would like to know his whereabouts so they can speak to him in connection with the theft of a car from Ottery St Mary in November and a burglary in Honiton that took place in October.

Josh is known to have links in Axminster, Torquay and Ottery St Mary.

Police are asking Josh to either contact a local police station himself as soon as possible or if anyone knows his whereabouts, to contact police on 101 or email 101@dc.police.uk and quote reference CR/084899/16.
