Police are urgently searching for Stephen Gadd, 51, who has gone missing while facing serious charges. Gadd, currently of no fixed address, is wanted in connection with an indecent exposure incident that took place on Loch Road, Poole, on 17 June 2016.
Stephen Gadd was scheduled to appear at Bournemouth Crown Court on 19 September 2016 to answer the indecent exposure charge. He also failed to attend Bournemouth Magistrates’ Court on 12 October 2016, where he faced allegations of breaching post-custodial supervision requirements.
As a registered sex offender, Gadd is additionally wanted for failing to report to a police station, a condition imposed on him as part of his supervision. Police have been actively searching for him since he missed his court appearances.
Detective Inspector Andy Roberts said: “We have been making numerous active enquiries since Stephen Gadd’s failure to appear at court in order to locate him. I am now releasing his photograph in the hope that someone will know his whereabouts. Although we have no information to suggest he is an immediate danger to the public, I would ask that anyone who sees Stephen does not approach him, but contacts the police immediately.”
Anyone with information about Stephen Gadd’s location is urged to contact the police to assist in their efforts to find him.
