Overview
- Durham police are seeking 45-year-old Darren Lynn over alleged stalking, a breach of a restraining order and threats to commit criminal damage tied to incidents in Ferryhill last year.
- Officers say Lynn has been on their wanted list for almost a year and has not been located despite repeated enquiries.
- Police Scotland has acknowledged the appeal and said Lynn has links to the Dumbarton and West Dunbartonshire area and could have travelled there, prompting cross-border cooperation.
- Authorities emphasise there is no wider risk to the public and urge anyone with information to contact 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
- If Lynn is traced he will be asked to account for the allegations and the inquiry could lead to further local patrols and witness appeals as police progress their investigation.
