POLICE are searching for a wanted man who may be in Southampton.

James Poole is being sought after a warrant was issued for his recall to prison.

Police say he was sentenced earlier at Southampton Crown Court to 13 months imprisonment for a charge of conspiracy to burgle.

Sussex Police said he was released from prison lawfully but a spokesman said that probation services had applied for a warrant for him to go back to prison for failing to comply with the terms of his release license.

They said there was "nothing to suggest" he had committed another offence.

The 21-year-old from Camber, is thought by detectives to be in Sussex or Southampton, which he has links to.

He is described as white, 6ft 3ins, of stocky build, with blue eyes and short ginger hair and facial stubble.

Anyone with information should contact Sussex Police on 101, referring to incident 709 of 08/10
