Hampshire Police are appealing for help to find a Havant man wanted in connection with an investigation into a reported serious assault in Waterlooville.

Officers are looking for Shaun O’Sullivan, 43, following the reported incident in Bunting Gardens on 10 September.

Police say they have carried out a number of enquiries to locate him and are now asking the public to report any sightings or information about his whereabouts.

O’Sullivan is described as white, around 5ft 8in tall, of slim build and with short brown hair.

Anyone who sees him should not approach him and should instead call 999, quoting reference 44260443584.

Information can also be submitted through Hampshire Police’s online reporting form.

Alternatively, people can contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or through its website.

Police have warned that anyone deliberately harbouring O’Sullivan to obstruct attempts to find him may be committing an offence and could themselves face arrest.
