Can you help find wanted man Leon Smith, aged 22 from Hull?
Officers would like to speak to him in connection with an altercation on Grasby Road in Hull on Tuesday 16 May where a man suffered stab wound injuries.
Detective Inspector Jim Clarke said: “Whilst the man is recovering well in hospital from his injuries, the outcome of this incident could have been considerably worse.
“We are keen to speak to anyone who sees Smith or may know where he is. Extensive enquiries are ongoing to try and locate Smith and we are doing everything we can to find him.
“We do believe this was an isolated incident between individuals known to each other and our teams continue to be visible in the area to provide additional reassurance to residents.”
A 42-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender and has since been released on conditional bail whilst enquiries continue.
If anyone has any further information that could assist authorities with their enquiries or help to locate Smith, please call the non-emergency number 101, quoting log 543 of 16 May.
