POLICE have stepped up their hunt for a wanted man from Southampton.

Officers have been trying to track down Sam Boylan for more than a week after he breached the conditions of a suspended sentence.

The 27-year-old is wanted on recall to prison after he was convicted of supplying class B drugs at Southampton Crown Court on November 16, 2015.

He is described as white, 5ft 7ins tall, of medium build and with dark brown hair and green eyes.

He is believed to be in Southampton and has links to the Portswood area.

PC Hoile from Southampton Central Police Station said: "Anyone who believes they may have seen Sam Boylan are advised to contact police straight away, this can be done in confidence.

"Associates and friends should be aware that if they are found to be assisting Boylan to avoid arrest or harbouring him they may be committing an offence and will be liable for arrest and a term of imprisonment themselves."

Anyone with information should call the police on 101, quoting reference 44160167285.
