£500 Police Reward In Search For Wanted Man From Seaford

Police searching for a wanted 26-year-old man from Seaford are now offering a £500 reward for information leading to his arrest.

Officers said Jack Davies was involved in a fight in Oxford Street near The Level in Brighton on 11 June, which left him seriously injured and needing hospital treatment.

He's then reported to have left hospital before his treatment was complete.

Police issued an appeal to locate him to ensure his welfare, later learning that Davies made contact with friends and family, with information suggesting he is well following the injury.

According to officers, Davies is now wanted on suspicion of assaulting another party during the altercation and possessing an offensive weapon.

Police added that, when interviewed by officers following the altercation, Davies also gave false details about his identity.

Detective Inspector Glenn Taylor said:

"Davies was the victim of an unpleasant assault and our initial priority was to ensure his welfare.

"Fortunately, information suggests that he is physically well.

"We are keen to locate him so he can be assessed by a health professional to confirm this and also so we can speak to him about these offences and the altercation on Oxford Street.

"Davies has links to Brighton, Seaford and Chailey and we would urge anyone who sees him or knows where he is to get in contact straight away."

Anyone who sees Davies or who has information regarding his whereabouts has been urged by Sussex Police to report online or call 101, quoting serial 730 of 11/06.
