A 25-year-old man is wanted by police in connection with a string of offences in Didcot, including stalking, burglary, and assault.

Kaine Simmonds is also sought by Thames Valley Police on suspicion of threats to kill, taking a vehicle without the owner’s consent, and criminal damage.

The offences relate to an ongoing investigation into the stalking of a woman between June and September this year.

"Kaine Simmonds is wanted in connection with a number of serious offences, including stalking, burglary and assault, and we are carrying out extensive enquiries to locate him.

"I am appealing directly to anyone who has seen Simmonds recently, or who has information about where he may be staying, to get in touch with us.

"Even information that may seem insignificant could help us locate him and bring him into custody."

He has short black afro-style hair, brown eyes, a thin black moustache, and a black goatee.
