A PROLIFIC shoplifter with links to Halton is wanted by police.

Cheshire Police are appealing to the public to help locate Jack McCarthy.

He is wanted by police after failing to appear in court.

The 34-year-old is described as white, around 6ft tall, of proportionate build, with dark brown hair and blue eyes.

McCarthy resides in the Liverpool area, and also has links to Runcorn, Widnes, Warrington and North Wales.

Anyone with any information in relation to the whereabouts of McCarthy is asked to contact Cheshire Police on 101 or visit www.cheshire.police.uk/tell-us quoting 26000300037.

Back in 2020, he was banned from stores in Warrington, St Helens and Cheshire Oaks after a £3,300 pilfering spree.

He walked into Boots and Marks and Spencer stores with empty bags and brazenly left with them bulging full of expensive goods without paying.
