Police are appealing for help to trace a man wanted on warrant after failing to attend court.

Peter Chislett, 44, did not appear at a scheduled hearing last week, and a warrant has since been issued for his arrest.

A spokesperson for Avon and Somerset Police said: "We want anyone who sees him, or knows where he might be, to call us."

Chislett is known to have connections to several towns across Somerset, including Shepton Mallet, Wells, Bruton, Evercreech, Frome and Milborne Port.

Anyone who sees him, or knows of his whereabouts, is urged to call 999 and quote reference 5225108053.
